Abstract

A superconducting magnet coil configuration comprising at least one section of a superconducting strip conductor, which is continuously wound in a cylindrical winding chamber (1) between two end flanges (2, 3) in several solenoid-like layers is characterized in that the section comprises an axial region of reduced current density (=notch region (12)), and the winding chamber (1) in the notch region (12) contains a first separating body (4) with a truncated conical envelope (5) which axially divides the winding chamber (1) into two partial chambers (6, 7), the superconducting strip conductor being guided over the truncated conical envelope (5) of the first separating body (4) from one partial chamber (6) into the other partial chamber (7) via a single-layer transfer winding (9), and a second separating body (10) is provided which supplements the first separating body (4) in the notch region (12) in a radial outer direction to form a circular cylinder, wherein the single-layer transfer winding (9) is disposed between the separating bodies (4, 10). The inventive magnet coil configuration thereby realizes an HTS coil with a notch region for correcting inhomogeneities, wherein bending o…
