Abstract

A superconducting magnet system for particle acceleration of a synchrotron radiaton source having a particle orbit in a given plane includes a superconducting winding surrounding the particle orbit and having a slot formed therein in the given plane of the particle orbit for egress of synchrotron radiation, the superconducting winding having a cos .theta. shaped current distribution, where .theta. is the azimuth angle, and a mechanical support for the superconducting winding including at least one clamping element pre-tensioning the superconducting winding, and tightening elements in the vicinity of the slot pre-tensioning the superconducting winding in cooperation with the at least one clamping element.
