Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for protecting a superconducting coil, which method prevents damage to the superconducting coil caused by a quench or the like, in a new way, without using a voltage (a change in voltage) generated in the superconducting coil. Provided is the method for protecting a superconducting coil made by winding tape-like superconducting wire having a superconducting layer. Power from a power supply is shut off based on the magnitude of a screening field, which is a difference between a measured magnetic field B in a direction of a thickness of the superconducting wire at a predetermined position, and a magnetic field Bcal in the direction of the thickness of the superconducting wire calculated disregarding an effect of screening current.

Abstract: A strong-magnetic-force field generating device is provided which can increase a magnetic force field and which can make the magnetic force field spatially uniform without adding an additional superconducting magnet to a commercially-available superconducting magnet. In the strong-magnetic-force field generating device, a disc ferromagnetic element is arranged inside a bore and above the equatorial plane thereof in a solenoid superconducting magnet, whose central axis is directed in a vertical direction, so as to be symmetric with respect to the central axis; and a ring ferromagnetic element is arranged above the disc ferromagnetic element so as to be out of contact with the disc ferromagnetic element and so as to be symmetric with respect to the central axis.

Abstract: An apparatus for manufacturing an anisotropic formed body in which functional, magnetic fine particles are oriented in a specific direction within a matrix and in which anisotropy is given to properties attributable to the functional fine particles. The apparatus allows use of a wide variety of materials as the functional fine particles and realizes an anisotropy which is parallel and of a uniform interval within a large area. Further, a method for manufacturing an anisotropic formed body, includes applying, by using a superconducting magnet device, a uniform and parallel magnetic field with magnetic lines of force at equal intervals and parallel to each other, to a mold in which the matrix is filled with a liquid molding material containing functional, magnetic fine particles, to orient the functional fine particles in a direction of the magnetic lines of force, whereby the liquid molding material subsequently hardens.
