New European Record Set in Dresden
The Dresden High Magnetic Field Laboratory (HLD) at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf wants to break the world record for the highest magnetic fields. Yesterday, the scientists managed to improve their own European record from 91.4 Tesla to 94.2 Tesla. The brand new coil was wound in the HLD’s workshop and encased in a thinner stainless steel cylinder; it was, though, also wrapped in the reinforcement fiber Zylon®. This small alteration permitted an even higher magnetic field while the coil’s borehole continued to have a diameter of 16 millimeters. MoreResearch Topics
