Abstract :
The authors chronicle the evolution of hybrid magnets built at the Francis Bitter National Magnet Laboratory. It is noted that resistive water-cooled magnets can generate field according to how much power is available. The hybrid concept has been developed for generating fields beyond a power limit, up to 45 T. Along the way five successively more adventurous designs have been tried
