Researchers at ETH Zürich have built the most powerful miniature superconducting magnets ever demonstrated, ...
When we think of powerful magnets used in particle accelerators or for NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), we often envision bulky machines, sometimes the size of buildings. But in an extraordinary ...
With the introduction of the 30-tesla HTS magnet, Kronos Fusion Energy is set to overcome some of the most significant barriers that have historically challenged the commercial viability of aneutronic ...
An experimental board containing a superconducting tape-shaped HTS material called Bi-2223 and a controlled heater is used to test the thermal runaway-based concept of magnet protection. Credit: ...
Berkeley Lab researchers are developing an approach to avoid sudden, potentially destructive energy releases in a new generation of superconducting magnets. The particle accelerators that enable ...
High-temperature superconductor magnets have the potential to lower the costs of operating particle accelerators and enable powerful new technologies like fusion reactors. But quenches -- the sudden, ...
