THE KU-LEUVEN PULSED HIGH MAGNETIC-FIELD FACILITY

The pulsed field installation at the K.U. Leuven is upgraded for the d evelopment and use of the new generation of high performance coils wit h peak fields in the 60-70 T range. New equipment includes an improved coil winding installation, capacitor bank switchgear and electrical d iagnostics to enable the running of two experiments in parallel, new c ryostats for stabilized temperatures in the 300-0.4 K range, sample ho lders which permit rotation of the sample, and facilities for sample p reparation.
