Abstract :
A superconducting solenoid magnet for colliding beam detectors has an iron yoke which controls the magnetic field inside and behind the solenoid coil. When the center of the coil is displaced from the center of the yoke, an unbalanced force is determined using the 3D field analysis program, TOSCA. It is shown that the program is suitable for analyzing the force, because the finite elements need not be adapted to the shape of the coils
