Abstract: The invention relates to a scalable device for storing and releasing energy, consisting of a housing that can be evacuated, a vacuum (12), at least one flywheel mass (2) on a shaft (17), at least one passive superconducting radial bearing and an electrical machine (24) that constitutes both a motor and a generator, wherein a cold surface is arranged in the vacuum container (11) for stabilizing the vacuum (12). The invention has the advantage that an energy store is provided that operates efficiently and cost-effectively with minimized energy losses, is scalable and also has sufficient safety elements to enable it to be used in industrial environments.

Abstract: A single-crystal pulling device includes vertically tilted magnetic coils between the walls of a cooling vessel. The inside and outside walls of the cooling vessel are coaxially aligned about a central axis. The inside wall of the cooling vessel is coaxially disposed around a cylindrical crucible that holds molten semiconductor material. A mid line passes through the middle point of a first coil, the central axis and the middle point of a second coil. The first coil is wound in a first plane, and the second coil is wound in a second plane. The first plane and the second plane both intersect the central axis at the same point. The first plane intersects the central axis at an angle between 5 and 15 degrees. In one embodiment, the first plane intersects the central axis below the crucible. In another embodiment, the first plane intersects the central axis above the crucible.

Abstract: The invention relates to a high-temperature superconductor (HTS) magnet system, preferably for an insertion device for generation of high-intensity synchrotron radiation, consisting of the coil body (6), on the mantle surface of which poles with windings that lie between them are disposed, wherein at least one high-temperature superconductor strip (23) is wound onto the coil body (6) in one direction, and adjacent winding packages or sections are electrically connected with one another in such a manner that the current flow runs in opposite directions, in each instance. The solution according to the invention has the advantage of a simplified winding process, whereby individual coil pairs can be replaced, if necessary, by means of the modular arrangement. The scheme can be applied to every possible configuration of an insertion device, and is therefore also suitable for use in so-called free electron lasers and other light sources based on particle accelerators.
