Neoscan Solutions is currently building the 14T HTS MRI magnet for whole-body MR imaging and spectroscopy, under the supervision of a magnet committee formed by the DYNAMIC consortium, i.e. seven research institutes and medical centers in the Netherlands who will be using the system. The magnet will be sited at the Radboud University in Nijmegen. It offers an 82 cm wide warm bore for MRI of...
A CNRS-CEA French collaboration has developed and built a new modular hybrid magnet at LNCMI-Grenoble to provide intense magnetic fields and fluxes. It was designed to reach in its main configuration at least 43 T in a 34 mm warm bore aperture with 24 MW of electrical power. This can be achieved by combining water cooled resistive inserts, including Cu-alloy polyhelix (25.5 T) and Bitter coils...
The Dresden High Magnetic Field Laboratory (HLD), a member of the European Magnetic Field Laboratory (EMFL), is a pulsed-field user facility that allows external and internal researchers to perform a wide range of experiments in pulsed magnetic fields [1]. Taking advantage of two independent, modular 50 and 14 MJ capacitor banks with charging voltages up to 24 kV, we operate a large variety of...
The National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) – Pulsed Field Facility (PFF) at Los Alamos operates ten pulsed magnet stations that deliver magnetic fields up to 100 T for user experiments. In recent years, PFF has enhanced its capabilities with upgraded magnets, enabling the generation of higher magnetic fields and an increased number of pulses. This presentation will provide an overview...
The need for strong steady state magnetic fields, of 40 T and above, raises several new challenges in the design of superconducting magnets. Rare-earth barium copper oxide (REBCO) coated conductors (CCs) are nowadays the strongest candidates for this type of applications, yet the layered structure of these materials carries along the major mechanical challenges. Recent tests of ultra-high...
Research on high-field all-superconducting magnets has garnered significant global attention in recent years due to their reduced size, lower cost, and enhanced convenience compared to hybrid magnet systems. These magnets play a pivotal role in various research fields, including material science, biological studies, and quantum computing. However, the fabrication of high-field superconducting...
In September 2024, the 42 T resistive magnet at The High Magnetic Field Laboratory of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CHMFL) was successfully commissioned, and in October, it was opened for user experiments. This paper provides a detailed account of the commissioning process and systematically investigates the evolution of critical parameters, including coil voltage and water flow rate,...
