Abstract

A system for generating a traveling field free line, traveling along a propagation direction different from the orientation of said traveling field free line, said system comprising at least a first and a second coil assembly, wherein said first coil assembly is configured for generating a first stationary field free line at a first location when a current is flowing in the first coil assembly and the second coil assembly is current free, and wherein said second coil assembly is configured for generating a second stationary field free line at a second location, when a current is flowing in the second coil assembly and the first coil assembly is current free. The system further comprises a controller configured for driving the first and second coil assemblies with corresponding driving currents synchronized with each other, such that said traveling field free line travels along the propagation direction from a first location towards a second location.
