A superconducting magnet includes a pair of superconducting coils, two heat shields surrounding the pair of superconducting coils, respectively, two vacuum chambers accommodating the two heat shields, respectively, and facing each other with a predetermined space sandwiched therebetween, a magnetic shield covering at least a portion of the two vacuum chambers, and two position adjustment mechanisms supporting the two vacuum chambers, respectively, in a position-adjustable manner. The two position adjustment mechanisms change distribution of a static magnetic field formed in the predetermined space by the pair of superconducting coils, by adjusting relative positional relation between the two vacuum chambers.
