Abstract:
A superconducting magnetic arrangement includes a magnetic coil unit. The magnetic coil unit includes a number of superconducting magnetic coils and a cryostat with an insulating vessel for cooling the magnetic coil unit. The magnetic coil unit is arranged in a vacuum in the insulating vessel. The magnetic coil unit is held in the interior of the insulating vessel by a maximum of six longitudinal bearing elements that each extend between the magnetic coil unit and the insulating vessel such that a rotary movement and a translatory movement of the magnetic coil unit relative to the insulating vessel is restrained by the bearing elements.
