Recent Developments At The Dresden High Magnetic Field Laboratory

The recent progress made at and the status quo of the Dresden High Magnetic Field Laboratory (Hochfeld-Magnetlabor Dresden = HLD) is reported. This laboratory, pres-ently under construction at the research center (Forschungszentrum) Dresden-Rossendorf, is planned to open as user facility in 2007 offering access to various pulsed-field magnets. Besides introducing the installed capacitive energy supply at the HLD, the pulsed-magnet designs are discussed in some detail. The experimental techniques that are routinely running at the HLD and the additional ones being set up, are summarized. First scientific results are highlighted.
