The new high field magnet laboratory at Nijmegen University — •J. C. Maan — High Field Magnet Laboratory, NSRIM, Toernooiveld 1, 6525 ED Nijmegen, The Netherlands
A new combined DC and pulsed field magnet laboratory will open at the end of 2002 at the University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands. The facility will feature two 20 MW, 33 T, Ø 32 mm DC magnets,one 30 T Ø 50 mm DC magnet and in a few years 40 T hybrid magnet. The pulsed installation will have several 55-70 T, 5 ms magnets based on a 2 MJ capacitor bank. This new facility is housed in an entirely new 3700 m2 building containing the installation and experimental infrastructure. Profiting from earlier experience in Nijmegen and other facilities, the new facility is designed to create experimental conditions as close as possible to normal laboratory conditions. Special care has been taken to design the building and installation to minimize vibrations and noise and to make the fields as stable as possible (ppm level). All magnets can also be accessed from the laboratory on the floor above to allow fragile (optic) or bulky equipment in combination with the fields. A wide range of estabilshed experimental infrastructure (optics, mK cryostates, 3He systems etc.) is avaliable.
The laboratory is an EU sponsored large facility and welcomes external users.
