Abstract
A superconducting magnet assembly may include a switch component including a first thermal switch and/or a second thermal switch. The first thermal switch may include a first activation mode configured to facilitate heat transfer between a first stage cold head and a radiation shield, and a first deactivation mode configured to break or impede the heat transfer between the first stage cold head and the radiation shield. The second thermal switch may include a second activation mode configured to facilitate heat transfer between a second stage cold head and a superconducting magnet, and a second deactivation mode configured to break or impede the heat transfer between the second stage cold head and the superconducting magnet.
