Charged particle beam manipulation requires magnetic dipoles for steering and quadrupoles for focusing. Conventional magnets are currently used leading to very large and heavy systems. Miniaturization of the optic magnets would enable the development of more affordable systems and potentially portable devices. The Advanced Magnet Lab, Inc. has developed a revolutionary magnet topology and packaging allowing for a significant increase of performance in field generation and field homogeneity. COMSOL Multiphysics was used to visualize the current distribution in the magnet and to simulate the heat transfer in steady state operation.
