    摘要: Magnetic resonance apparatus is provided comprising a magnet having a first pair of coils arranged in a plane. The coils are operable in a counter-running manner when in use so as to generate a sensitive volume of magnetic field spaced apart from said plane. The magnetic field in the sensitive volume is arranged to have sufficient uniformity to enable magnetic resonance signals to be obtained from a target when located within the sensitive volume. The magnetic field direction Z is oriented to lie substantially parallel to the planes. The coils are arranged such that the sensitive volume is elongate in a direction X substantially parallel to the planes. A drive system is provided to cause relative movement between the magnet and the target so as to allow the sensitive volume to be moved with respect to the target.

    摘要: A current limiting device having an electrical superconductor for attachment in an electrical circuit, the superconductor being made of material having a critical current density which varies with applied magnetic field. A magnetic field generator generates a magnetic field to which the superconductor is exposed. Under normal working conditions a magnetic field applied causes the critical current density to be less than a maximum critical current density. A controller adjusts the critical current density such that after a current carried by the superconductor exceeds the critical current density so that the superconductor transforms to a resistive state, the controller can be activated to increase the critical current density causing the superconductor to return the superconducting condition without terminating the flow of current through the superconductor.

    摘要: A nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus having a magnetic assembly which generates a main static field in a working region which is external of the magnetic assembly. The main static magnetic field has a uniformity suitable for performing NMR experiments. An oscillating magnetic field generating assembly is provided with a set of axially aligned electrical coils connected to an oscillating electrical source. The axially aligned electrical coils generate an rf magnetic filed within the working region of the magnet assembly. Adjacent coils of the axially aligned electrical coils are wound in opposite senses and connected in series so as to generate opposing magnetic fields which superimpose to produce an oscillating magnetic field external of the magnet assembly. The oscillating magnetic field is sufficiently uniform within the working region to perform NMR experiments.
