Development of a field measurement system for the Bulk HTSC SAU

To realize a short-period strong-field undulator, we proposed a high temperature superconducting bulk staggered array undulator (Bulk HTSC SAU) and proceeded proof of principle experiments and numerical studies. We have succeeded to generate periodic transverse magnetic fields whose strength was controlled by an external solenoid field. At the same time, we revealed a problem; at both ends of undulator, field distribution is substantially distorted. We proposed several approaches of field correction. To verify the effectiveness of these field correction methods, it is necessary to measure the magnetic field distribution precisely, not only inside of the undulator but also both ends. For this purpose, we developed a rotary measurement system to measure the magnetic field distribution at the end of the undulator. Multiple Hall sensors are placed on a circuit board at equal intervals from the centre of the board. By …
