Description

4th Superconducting Magnet Test Stand Workshop

24 - 26 Apr 2023

Dear Colleague,

After taking a lengthy break since the 3rd International Workshop on Superconducting Magnet Test Facilities (SMTF 03) at Freia in Uppsala (S) in 2019, we are pleased to announce the 4th Workshop Superconducting Magnet Test Facilities (SMTF 04) that will take place on April 26-28, 2023, in Paestum (Salerno), Italy. This time, we are teaming up with the Workshop Instrumentation and Diagnostics for Superconducting Magnets (IDSM'02) that will be organized at the same location on the earlier dates of Apr 24-26, 2023. By having the two Workshops side by side, we aim to ease participation for those colleagues who may be interested in attending both events, and at the same time enrich the overall experience and foster new collaborations between the two communities. Please note, however, that the core agenda of the SMTF Workshop will focused strictly on the status of the test facilities and their road map and interest in investing and getting developed for their participation in different projects, and will be defined independently by the SMTF Organizing Committee. The topical part of the SMTF workshop, this time will be abandoned to give the floor to the workshop dedicated to novel diagnostics and instrumentation. More standard measurements and systems, presented in the previous editions of the SMTF will be instead part of an online training program, that we plan for a larger audience and offline of the workshop. The participants will be asked to deliver a presentation (typically a 20 min talk + 10 min discussion, although shorter presentations will be considered as well). We will be soliciting presentations on the following topics:

Status report on the test facility regarding equipment and operational conditions

List of relevant projects for the laboratory that is a motor for operation or further investment

Plan of upgrade, development of the test facility

Following the success of the SMTF Workshops, we sincerely hope that you may be interested in supporting this initiative going forward by accepting our invitation and making a valuable contribution to the Workshop program. Additional information regarding travel, accommodation, registration, and presentation formats will be sent at a later date. We are looking forward to your participation!

Sincerely, 

Marta Bajko (CERN),

2nd Workshop on Instrumentation and Diagnostics for Superconducting Magnets

26 - 28 Apr 2023

Dear Colleague,

After taking a lengthy break since the IDSM’01 Workshop in Berkeley, CA in 2019, we are pleased to announce the Second Workshop on Instrumentation and Diagnostics for Superconducting Magnets (IDSM'02) will take place on April 26-28, 2023, in Paestum (Salerno), Italy. This time, we are teaming up with the Workshop on Superconducting Magnet Test Stands that will be organized at the same location on the earlier dates of Apr 24-26, 2023. By having the two Workshops side by side, we aim to ease participation for those colleagues who may be interested in attending both events, and at the same time enrich the overall experience and foster new collaborations between the two communities. Please note, however, that the core agenda of the IDSM Workshop remains focused strictly on novel instrumentation and diagnostics, and will be defined independently by the IDSM Organizing Committee. Workshop participation is by invitation only, and most participants will be asked to deliver a presentation (typically a 20 min talk + 10 min discussion, although shorter presentations will be considered as well). We will be soliciting presentations on the following topics:

  • Diagnostics for transient strain energy releases, quench precursors, and sources of training in LTS magnets (acoustic emission, accelerometers, strain sensors, FBGs, etc.)
  • Diagnostics challenges for HTS magnets in HEP and Fusion: conductor defects, damage mechanisms, current sharing
  • Novel quench detection and localization methods (optical, ultrasonic, RF, etc.)
  • Magnetic measurement methods (harmonic field probes, quench antennas, other magnetic sensors)
  • Data analysis and management; processing diagnostic “big data” with ML/AI
  • Innovative electronics and data acquisition solutions
  • Any innovative ideas for new kinds of diagnostic instrumentation, sensors, and data analysis techniques

Following the success of the first IDSM Workshop, we sincerely hope that you may be interested in supporting this initiative going forward by accepting our invitation and making a valuable contribution to the Workshop program. Additional information regarding travel, accommodation, registration, and presentation formats will be sent at a later date. We are looking forward to your participation!

Sincerely,
