A review of non-traditional approaches and emerging trends in superconducting magnets for
MRI is presented. Novel technologies and concepts have arisen in response to new clinical …

Superconducting undulators (SCUs) with a period> 15 mm can offer a much higher on-axis
undulator field B 0 than state-of-the-art cryogenic permanent magnet undulators with the …

This review paper summarizes and analyses the current literature on the synthesis of dense
MgB 2 bulk with high density and by both the modified solid reaction method and the Mg …

Understanding the nature of grain boundary (GB) characteristics in combination with
creating low-energy GBs by modifying the processing conditions, so-called GB engineering …

We report an effective carbon-containing additive, coronene (C 24 H 12), for MgB 2
superconducting wires. We used B powder coated with C 24 H 12 to fabricate MgB 2 wires …

Abstract Conceptual designs of 1.5 and 3.0 T full-body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
magnets using conduction cooled MgB 2 superconductor are presented. The sizes …

Main magnets for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are largely constructed with low
temperature superconducting material. Most commonly used superconductors for these …

In this review, we introduce the development of internal Mg diffusion (IMD)-processed MgB 2
superconducting wires. First, a brief history of the IMD method (which has been given …

In this paper we show that an advanced internal Mg infiltration method (AIMI) is effective in
producing superconducting wires containing dense MgB 2 layers with high critical current …

Magnesium diboride (MgB2) is known to have good potential to be used in a commercial
liquid helium-free magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) magnet. The magnet is expected to be …
