Progress on the NHMFL 45-T hybrid magnet system

Completion of the 45-T Hybrid Magnet System for the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) at Tallahassee, Florida will mark significant advancements in the technologies for both resistive and superconducting magnets. The project, now in the manufacturing phase, is a collaboration with Francis Bitter National Magnet Laboratory (FBNML), who have responsibility for the Resistive Insert Magnet and the NbTi portion of the Superconducting Outsert Magnet. US industry has also contributed heavily in all phases. The components of several critical subsystems have already been delivered and work has begun on their assembly and test. This paper reviews unique features of the magnet system, the progress to date, and the schedule to the end of the project.
