 Quadrupole magnet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quadrapole magnets sometimes called correctors, are designed to create a magnetic field whose magnitude grows linearly with the radial distance from its longitudinal axis, which is usually centered on and parallel to the main motion of the charged particles.
In a quadrapole electromagnet there are four steel pole tips, two opposing magnetic north poles and two opposing magnetic south poles.
The steel is magnetized by a large electric current that flows in the coils of tubing wrapped around the poles.

In higher-energy accelerators, quadrupole magnet s are used to focus the particles into a beam and prevent their mutual electrostatic repulsion from causing them to spread out.
Cyclotrons have a single pair of hollow 'D'-shaped plates to accelerate the particles and a single dipole magnet to curve the track of the particles.
The tube has many magnets distributed around it to focus the particles and curve their track around the tube, and microwave cavities similarly distributed to accelerate them.

DESCRIPTION: Two large horseshoe magnets are arranged with their poles N to S and S to N, forming a "quadrupole" as shown in the photograph at the right.
Quadrupole magnets are used in focusing of charged particle beams, where the beam moves through the field perpendicular to the plane of the magnets, as shown in the photograph.
A single quadrupole focuses in one direction and defocuses in the other direction, so quadrupole magnets are generally used in pairs as beam focusing magnets.

 Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance or NQR is a technique related to nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) which is used to detect atoms whose nuclei have a nuclear quadrupole moment, such as
Since unlike NMR, NQR is done in an environment without a static (or DC) magnetic field, it is sometimes called "zero-field NMR".
A detection system consists of a radio frequency (RF) power source, a coil to produce the magnetic excitation field and a detector circuit which monitors for a RF NQR response coming from the explosive component of the mine.

The actual effective length of many magnets is, therefore, a matter for 3D magnet code modeling or conjecture, and fudge (correction) factors, determined by analysis of observed beam behavior, are used by the control system in computing magnet setpoints and in determining magnet strengths from measured currents for the online model.
BT QUADS -------- Quadrupole magnet currents (amps) for the BT are converted to gradients (T/m) by the control system using linear interpolation of MMS data found in a SAD script file corresponding to the three different varieties of BT quads.
The value for the effective lengths of ZH and ZV correctors from this file (0.1232 m) is sufficiently different from their SAD deck effective length values (0.06 m) that this must be represent another type of fudge factor.

 Recycler Closed Orbit Distortion Expected from Random Magnetic Element Strength and Alignment Errors   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The Recycler Ring is constructed from 344 combined function and 88 discrete quadrupole magnets.
A total rms orbit distortion at any point due to a different set of errors can be calculated by noting that distortions are linear in the corresponding errors and that all distortions add in quadruature.
For example, if we believe that magnets will be aligned transversely with an rms error of 0.25 mm, then an rms magnet-to-magnet strength variation of 3.7x10-4 contributes only 10% to the expected closed orbit error.
