GRAND UNIFIED MAGNET (PARTICLE ACCELERATOR)

This thesis describes a high field two mode superferric dipole magnet for particle accelerators. At low field it behaves as a ferric magnet while at high field as a ${\rm cos}\theta$ magnet. It retains the advantages of a low field ferric magnet: substantial superconductor saving, easy fabrication and reliable operation. While it can go up to any field (limited by superconductor critical current) like a ${\rm cos}\theta$ magnet, the use of rectangular rather than radial geometry allows elimination of keystoning of the superconductor. The mechanical stability is also significantly improved over a ${\rm cos}\theta$ magnet by introducing inner support and horizontal preload.
