Description
The ELI-GBS LINAC, designed to accelerate electrons up to 800 MeV, employs 23 quadrupole and 2 dipole magnets for beam focusing, steering and bending toward two diagnostic lines. Factory and laboratory measurements confirmed that both magnet types meet design specifications, with quadrupoles achieving high field homogeneity and dipoles exceeding integrated bending field requirements while maintaining uniformity within plus or minus 10^-3. Comparative tests highlighted minor differences due to measurement methodology but validated operational performance. Following delivery, the magnets were installed in the LINAC lattice with alignment corrections applied to ensure beam optics stability at the target energy. Complementary magnetostatic simulation provided a consistent model of the dipole geometry and excitation, demonstrating the integration of experimental and computational approaches for magnet characterization and installation verification in support of reliable accelerator operation.
