A project for the P¯ANDA detector solenoid magnet

Abstract In this paper we present the magnetic, thermal and mechanical design of the Solenoid Magnet for the P¯ANDA detector, developed in Genova. This project foresees a coil realized with a Rutherford-type, aluminum stabilized superconducting cable, wound inside an aluminum coil former and indirectly cooled with a forced circulation of liquid helium. The concept of this magnet is the same of many other working magnet used in different detectors, such as BaBar, Finuda, Delphi, CMS and many others.
