From page 207...
... For dc fields (constant field at least during several minutes) , available fields must be higher than 21 T, that is, beyond values reached for commercially available magnets, while pulsed fields must be operated with capacitor banks having stored energies of more than 2 MJ.

... is the steady field com ponent of the National Key Science and Technology Basic Establishment Project for high-magnetic-field facilities and is funded by the National Development and Reform Commission. The principal objectives of SHMFF are to build a 40 T hybrid magnet, a series of high-power resistive magnets for multiple uses, including a resis tive high-homogeneity magnet for NMR, and superconducting magnets.
From page 209...
... Activities include study of the origin of the magnetism in magnetic materials and the mechanisms underlying magnetically induced properties. Interesting phe nomena observed at high fields and high pressures are studied using cyclotron resonance, far-infrared and millimeter-wave spectroscopy, magneto-optical spec troscopy, Faraday rotation, magnetization, and transport measurements.
From page 210...
... TML has been a user facility since 1998, and it provides domestic and international users access to 17 different magnet systems, including resistive and hybrid magnets operated with a 15 MW power converter and fields up to 37.9 T; 30 mm (hybrid) , pulsed magnets 30 to 50 T; and NMR systems up to 930 MHz.

... The Laboratoire National des Champs Magnétiques Intenses (LNCMI) , with a dc facility in Grenoble and a pulsed field facility in Toulouse, is a French national laboratory operated by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS)
From page 212...
... is part of the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf and in 2006 the building and the construction of the new laboratory were finished, making the HLD now the largest pulsed field laboratory in Europe, with five measuring stations for pulsed magnets. The laboratory features an unprecedented 50 MJ capacitor bank power supply that energizes its magnets with a record field of 94.2 T, achieved in early 2012.

... Los Alamos, New Mexico The Pulsed Field Facility at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) is one of the three campuses of the NHMFL, the other two being at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida (continuous fields, magnetic resonance, and general head quarters)
From page 214...
... Tallahassee has a very strong magnet technology program that develops special magnets for external facilities (split coil, three-dimensional rotating field, a 25 T hybrid for the Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin to work with a neutron source) and new magnets for its own facility (high-homogeneity magnets and series-connected hybrid magnets)
