Abstract: A superconducting solenoid-based focusing lens was designed and built for use in the SSR1 cryomodule of PXIE test facility at FNAL. As the cryomodule contains superconducting spoke-type cavities, one of main goals during design stage was minimization of magnetic field on walls of the cavities. The design also attempted minimization of the uncertainty of the magnetic axis position in the lens. This report describes main features of the design and summarizes results of performance tests and magnetic axis position measurements. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
