Research work on superconducting magnet systems in Germany

Various applications of sc magnets are pursued in our country. Development in nuclear physics, especially new developments for dc and pulsed superconducting beam line magnets are reported. Research work on magnets for plasma and fusion physics concentrates on systems studies, toroidal systems, and energy storage devices and will become one of the most challenging fields for magnet builders in the future. Industrial applications of sc magnets are investigated for high speed transportation systems, sc machinery and magnetic separation devices. Programs and results are discussed.
