Abstract
Abstract A permanent magnet structure comprising one or more truncated hollow cyliical flux source (HCFS) segments with the end faces of each segment covered by superconducting sheets. In the case of a plurality of axially aligned segments, the array may be arranged to provide a periodic magnet structure suitable for use in a wiggler.
