Summary

Force-cooled current leads for force-cooled superconducting magnets have been constructed and tested. The current leads were designed for nominal currents of 6 and 9 kiloamperes. The current-carrying element consists of a copper box with welded shields. The specific heat influx at nominal current is 1 watt/kiloampere, the hydraulic resistance is 10 kilopascals and the electrical insulation strength 2-20 kilovolts. The 6-9 kiloampere current leads have now been operating in the test arrangement of the Nuclotron over a long period of time.
