Abstract

Future high-field accelerator magnets foresee the extensive use of Nb3Sn, more expensive than the Nb-Ti of LHC. For projects involving the series production of magnets, conductor grading is mandatory in order to reduce the cost. To allow grading, a splice between higher and lower grade cables must be implemented. The internal splice option, i.e., embedded in the winding pack, is the one considered in this manuscript. The magnet technology is Wind&React (W&R). The target resistance is 1 nΩ at a background field of B≈10 T and ratio between operational and critical current I/Ic≈1/3, the one at which such Nb3Sn dipoles are expected to work. This manuscript reports progress on ultrasonically welded, soldered and diffusion-bonded splices. The feasibility studies on ultrasonic welding between Nb3Sn Rutherford cables and strands is presented. The potential corrosive effect of fluxing agents of impregnated soldered samples is examined. In the end, the design and test in SULTAN of bent diffusion-bonded splices is reported.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
