sPHENIX discussion of the superconducting solenoid

["Yip, Kin" <kinyip AT bnl.gov>]

Dear Paul Orfin,

 

Can you please let us know what your estimation is regarding to Dave’s question ?   I understand that he’d like to move the

sPHENIX Magnet aside and then build the platform (for the full-field test) and put the Magnet back to the original location

after the platform is built.

 

The outlet temperature is almost 148 K.  The warm-up rate seems 0.8 K/hour, which is ~19 K/day. 

ð  (295-148)/19 = 7.7 days.   So, some time next week, the Magnet will be warm enough ??

 

Could you please let us know in this mailing list ?  Even if you have answered Dave, can you just please take trouble

to “cut and paste” your answer here ???

Paul,

 

Can you give us an estimated date when the magnet will be warm enough to start the removal of the Valve Box?
