A 60 T nondestructive pulsed magnet for the "Free Electron Laser for Infrared Experiments" (FELIX) is developed. As a rise time of 10 ps is required, the magnet is designed consisting of two coils in order to cope with the skin effect and power requirements. Each of the coils is energized by its own capacitor bank. The inner coil is composed of 2 helices made from copper tubes; it is energized by a 12 kV, 0.1 mF capacitor bank to generate 30 T with 20 ps pulse duration. The 60 T field is obtained by adding a 30 T fiield from the outer coil with 5 ms pulse duration energized by a 5 kV, 8 mF capacitor bank. The basic design criteria, the coil modeling and manufacturing techniques are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
