Finite Elements Magnetic Analysis of the CLIC MDI Region

Abstract

Considering the current CLIC SiD detector design and the machine parameter L*, the final focus quadrupole QD0 will be placed inside the experiment itself. This configuration is very challenging from an integration point of view. Among several other aspects, the iron-dominated QD0 will need an active magnetic shielding to avoid undesired interactions with the magnetic field generated by the main solenoid of the detector. This shielding will be provided by a superconducting anti-solenoid, and this paper aims to describe the method used to design such device, the results obtained and the issues still to be solved.
