Field uniformity of better than one part in 10,000 is required for the dipole magnets for the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC). The high field dipole and quadrupole magnets proposed for the SSC generate higher multipole components of field due to magnetization (persistent currents) in the superconductor. When the superconductor filament diameter is of the order of 20μm, the sextupole term alone is about 17 parts in 10,000 at an injection induction of 0.3 tesla in the SSC dipole magnets at a radius of 1 cm. This paper shows calculations of the magnetization phenomena which agree very well with magnetic measurement. Several passive methods for removing the sextupole component and higher components of the field generated by magnetization of the superconductor in the SSC dipole magnets are presented in the paper.
