Superconducting magnets
DOI: 10.1063/1.3022883
In the last ten years we have seen the development of high‐field superconducting magnet technology from the announcement, in 1961, of the first solenoids to the present day, when around a thousand magnet systems are in use in scientific laboratories throughout the world. A scientist interested in magnetic‐field effects can now obtain a reliable magnet to generate a homogeneous and steady field in the 50–100 kilogauss range for a capital investment of about 25 cents per gauss.
