Abstract :
This paper reports on the design and evaluation of a high-stability current control developed for energizing the C-field magnet of the high-field cesium standard experiment, currently in progress at the Politecnico di Torino. This source must supply about 0.8 kW dc power with a current stability in the 10-7 range for more than 1 h
