The Design of a Air-borne Superconducting Magnet for Cosmic Ray Measurement

Abstract

The design process of a air-borne superconducting magnet for cosmic ray measurement is presented. The weight of all this magnet system must be less than 300kg and the magnetic field is 20kG with enough accesses for cosmic ray and for optical system.
The superconducting magnet must work during 12 hours with persistent current mode. The construction of this magnet system is possible with a helium tank of 80l, utililzing the aluminum stabilized superconducting wire or the multiple filamentary superconducting wire.
