Abstract
It is proposed to equip with an intense magnetic field the innovative isotropic, high granularity, homogeneous, deep cubic calorimeter, nicknamed ‘calocube’, in development for CR experiments in space. A number of identical coils are arranged for constituting three mutually orthogonal magnetic torus’s forming a ‘magnetic bubble’ wrapping the calocube. Number and shape of the coils are discussed. Magnetic field intensity, and encumbrance and mass of the coils are evaluated for a model of the system wrapping a 1 m side calocube. A reduced version, with only one magnetic torus (4 coils) wrapping a 0.8 m side calocube is evaluated and discussed.
