Abstract
A permanent magnet structure comprising one or more truncated hollow cyliical flux source (HCFS) segments with the end faces of each segment covered by superconducting sheets. In the case of a plurality of axially aligned segments, the array may be arranged to provide a periodic magnet structure suitable for use in a wiggler.
Claims7
A permanent magnetic structure comprising at least one truncated hollow substantially cylindrical flux source for producing a uniform high-field in its central cavity, said high field being perpendicular to the axis of the truncated flux source, and a pair of superconducting plates covering the end faces of the truncated flux source.
A magnetic structure comprising a plurality of truncated hollow substantially cylindrical flux sources, said truncated flux sources being axially aligned in a linear array, each flux source serving to produce a uniform high field in its central cavity, and a pair of superconducting plates covering the end faces of each of the truncated flux sources.
