A first model dipole is being built for a block-coil dipole for future hadron colliders. The design incorporates stress management, in which Lorentz stress is intercepted between successive sections of the coil and bypassed through a support matrix. By controlling stress, the dipole should make it possible to utilize Nb3Sn and BSCCO superconductors without strain degradation at high field. The first model dipole is being built using NbTi cable in order to evaluate fabrication techniques and stress management performance. 1999 IEEE.
