"Two world-first High-Tc Superconducting (HTS) beamline magnets have been designed, manufactured and commissioned for synchrotron and neutron research facilities. One, for the Hahn-Meitner Institut, is for use with their high-resolution diffraction and resonant magnetic scattering instrument MAGS at the Berlin electron synchrotron facility BESSY," scientists in Lower Hutt, New Zealand report.
"The key features of this 5 tesla split-pair magnet include field performance within a given confined geometry, and low weight. Mounting in a 6-circle goniometer and employing conduction-cooled HTS coils, it operates through 90 degrees of rotation with respect to the ...
