Abstract:
A single conducting wire is used for localizing the magnetic axis of a quadrupole magnet. The localization is performed by both the stretched-wire and the vibrating-wire method. The compatibility of the two measurements is demonstrated and the measurement repeatability is assessed for both the methods at varying the magnet gradient. Furthermore, the influence of the background magnetic field in the two approaches is studied at varying the magnetic field strength. Experimental results are given for a normal-conducting quadrupole magnet.
