Abstract Dipole magnets in the fragment separator region of the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) are critical elements used to select the desired isotopes. These magnets are subjected to high radiation and heat loads. High temperature superconductors (HTS), which have been shown to be radiation resistant and can operate at 40 K where heat removal is substantially more efficient than 4.5 K where conventional superconductors such as NbTi and Nb3Sn operate, are proposed for the coils. The magnet coils carry large current and will be subjected to large Lorentz forces that must be constrained to avoid distortions of the coils. It is desirable to minimize the use of organic materials in the fabrication of this magnet because of the radiation environment. This paper will describe an approach to support the coils to minimize coil deformation and cryogenic heat loss.
