  • Abstract
    An experimental superconducting magnet capable of producing a persistent field in excess of 45,000 gauss is announced by Varian Associates. Developed by Dr. Harry Weaver, research scientist of the company´s Instrument Division, the new magnet achieves its unusually high field strength through the phenomenon of superconductivity at temperatures near 4 degrees Kelvin (−270 C).
