2. General Mechanical Issues Vibration –Large roots blower system for Dilution Refrigerator –Cold Heads Choice of Cold Heads or Liquefier Choice of Helium Purification Method Define Requirements for Polarized 3He Injection Assembly Issues with Cesium Coating Collimator Design Neutron Guide/Splitter Design Magnetic Shielding in ER2 Maintenance of Apparatus Real Estate in ER2

3. EDM Cryostat Plan D 0.8m (30”) diameter x 2m long fiberglass enclosure tube with metal flanges Thin copper foil HV ground-plane glued to enclosure tube inner surface Inside: target cell/electrode assembly, light guides Cos θ magnet outside enclosure RF coils Ferromagnetic Shield – location determined by Cos θ magnet uniformity requirements

4. EDM Cryostat Plan D (2) Superconducting shield – lead layer supported by aluminum can – 4°K Heat shield - 50°K μMetal shield - 300°K Vacuum Can ? Cryogenic polarized 3He bend to target preparation vessel Helium purifier ???

5. EDM Cryostat Plan D (3) Horizontal location for variable capacitor Trade-off between shielding and apparatus heigt

6. ANSYS EMAG Calculations Magnet Design –Uniform field over a large volume –Proximity of Ferromagnetic and super-conducting shields –Large SS flanges and enclosure HV Electrode Design –Target cell material properties –Thin metal (Cu?) coated acrylic? RF Coil Design –Sensitivity to field variations over large volume Shielding Design –Large complicated shape with multiple large penetrations

7. ANSYS MECH Calculations Cryogenic Safety Issues Calculate wire seal flanges and conflat flanges for pressure application Size safety vents Window Design Mechanical Support of Target Enclosure/HV Variable Capacitor (>1000Kg)
