Abstract
A vertically-aligned open magnet includes first and second (i.e., top and bottom) assemblies each having a longitudinally-extending and vertically-aligned axis, a superconductive main coil, and a vacuum enclosure enclosing the main coil. At least one support beam has a first end attached to the first assembly and has a second end attached to the second assembly. An annularly-cylindrical support skirt is coaxially aligned with the axes, has a first longitudinal end attached to the second assembly and has a second longitudinal end supportable by a floor.
