The challenges of magnet sorting for the HL-LHC
Magnet sorting is a challenging process that aims at improving the performance of a particle accelerator by the clever choice of the position of the magnets to induce a natural compensation of the field errors that are inevitable in modern superconducting magnets. These studies are intrinsically multi-faceted and an appropriate figure of merit should be…
