Abstract

A superconducting magnet apparatus comprises a superconducting coil, a superconducting magnet cooling module comprising a heat shunt for thermally contacting the superconducting coil, and a cooling channel for cooling the heat shunt by contacting the heat shunt. A refrigerator cools the cooling channel and the heat shunt comprises a contact portion surrounding at least a part of a surface of the superconducting coil, and a protruding portion externally extending from the contact portion to contact the cooling channel.
