Quenching of a no-insulation high-temperature superconducting magnet.

We report details on the quenching incident of an 18 T high-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnet, which occurred in December 2020. It has been received that the no-insulation (NI) design of an HTS magnet is relatively safe in quenching. However, the NI design could not completely prevent the magnet from quenching and damaging the associated system.

Searching for Invisible Axion Dark Matter with an 18 T Magnet Haloscope.

We report the first search results for axion dark matter using an 18 T high-temperature superconducting magnet haloscope. The scan frequency ranges from 4.7789 to 4.

Design, construction, and operation of an 18 T 70 mm no-insulation (RE)BaCuO magnet for an axion haloscope experiment.

We report the design, construction, and operation results of an 18 T 70 mm cold-bore high temperature superconductor (HTS) no-insulation (NI) magnet, which is developed for an axion haloscope experiment. The magnet consists of 44 double-pancake coils wound with multi-width and multi-thickness REBaCuO (RE = rare earth) tapes. Owing to the NI feature, the magnet is highly compact; is 162 mm in outer diameter and 476 mm tall; and provides an environment of 0.
