Abstract
A superconductive magnet coil arrangement for generating a homogeneous magnetic field in a volume under examination, comprising a magnet coil having two first windings of a superconductive wire which are disposed adjacent the ends of the magnet coil and which are supported on a hollow supporting body, and comprising further at least one additional winding of a superconductive wire which is arranged in the area between the first windings and which is supported by the supporting body, is characterized by the fact that at least one of the additional windings is arranged on a winding core mounted on the supporting body and the fixation securing the winding against axial displacement occupies an area in length of the winding core shorter than the length of the winding arranged on the winding core. It is achieved in this manner that the pressure produced by Lorentz forces in the supporting body is kept off the rest of the winding.
