Open midplane designs based on sector coils in superconducting dipole magnets

For some cases of lattice layout in particle accelerators, the major part of the energy deposition coming from the collision is located in the midplane of the magnets. The heat produced might result in a quench in superconducting magnets. One solution for reducing the energy deposition in the coil is to introduce an opening in the midplane…
