Abstract
This invention relates to a field mapping fixture for mapping the magnetic fields of a superconducting magnet. Such structures of this type, generally, are capable of measuring the magnetic fields of a relatively small imaging volume.
Claims5
A mapping apparatus for measuring the magnetic field of a superconducting magnet, wherein said apparatus is comprised off
- a retainer ring;
- an end plate rigidly connected to said retainer ring;
- a holder connected to said end plate and rotatable to circumferential positions with respect to said end plate;
- a guide connected to said holder and slidable to axial locations with respect to said holder;
- and
- a magnetic field measuring probe connected to said guide at one of a plurality of radial locations on said guide.
