5.0 out of 5 stars An outstanding textbook for superconducting magnet design, January 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
A rigorous yet readable magnum opus; a comprehensive compilation of magnet-design facts, insights, methods and case studies; a tome of 682 pages, 210 figures, 87 tables and 885 references, meticulously edited and proofread to minimize the typos that can detract from the utility of a textbook or handbook. Chapters include Electromagnetic Field Theory, Fields & Forces, Cryogenics, Magnetization, Stability, AC Losses and Protection. Among the topics likely to be of especial interest and value to many readers are magnetic shielding, induction heating, magnetic forces, stresses and strains in a bonded solenoid, field expansion in Cartesian coordinates, and field-error coefficients. Of great value to almost everyone are the Appendix figures and tables of the physical properties of cryogens and insulators and the physical and electrical properties of normal metals and superconductors.
