Abstract:
The Italian Minister for University and Research has recently funded a large program for an Innovative Research Infrastructure on applied Superconductivity (IRIS) in Italy. Based on the LASA laboratory in Milan, it is a partnership, in the form of a strongly coordinated work, of existing laboratories of various institutes: INFN (leader, participating with 4 labs: Frascati, Genoa, Milan, Salerno); CNR (SPIN institute in Genoa, Naples and Salerno); five Universities: Genoa, Milan, Naples, Salento and Salerno. IRIS will be an upgrade of existing infrastructures, with new state-of-the-art instruments, reinforcing the capability of Italy in the domain of superconductivity aimed to accelerators. IRIS foresees a strong coordination of the activity of the participating laboratories until 2035, at least, thus enhancing the participation of Italian laboratories to future projects requiring advanced superconducting technology, like FCC or the Muon-Collider, and also for developing societal applications of technologies, pursued for high-energy accelerators, especially for the energy domain and the medical sector. In this paper, we present the two novel demonstrators, part of the initial IRIS program: 1) a green superconducting line, 130 m long and designed for 40 kA current capability at 25 kV; 2) a 1 m long HTS dipole magnet with some characteristics similar to LHC dipoles: 10 T, 50 mm × 80 mm bore, but operating at 20 K rather than 1.9 K.
