A dosed magnetic circuit calculation program for a computer. The program includes steps of calculating, based on a temporary dosed magnetic circuit curve indicating a relationship between an external magnetic field and magnetization of a permanent magnet in a closed magnetic circuit environment, a first open magnetic circuit curve indicating a relationship between the external magnetic field and the magnetization of the permanent magnet, calculating a magnetic field difference between the temporary closed magnetic circuit curve and the first open magnetic circuit curve, updating the temporary closed magnetic circuit curve with a magnetization curve shifted in the external magnetic field direction by the magnetic field difference from a second open magnetic circuit curve obtained by measuring the magnetization of the permanent magnet in an open magnetic circuit environment, and repeating the process until an error between the first and the second open magnetic circuit curves satisfies a predetermined condition.

A magnetic assembly includes magnets arranged in a Halbach array. The magnets include a first magnet and a second magnet positioned adjacent the first magnet. The first magnet and the second magnet have adjacent surfaces. A cavity is formed in the each of the adjacent surfaces and is aligned with the cavity formed in the adjacent surface of the adjacent magnet. The magnetic assembly also includes a ferromagnetic pin positioned within the aligning cavities to connect the first magnet and the second magnet. The ferromagnetic pin has a size, a shape, and a magnetic permeability that facilitate a magnetic force between the first surface and the second surface inducing a magnetic flux path through the ferromagnetic pin such that an apparent magnetic force between the first surface and the second surface is one of i) a repelling force less than 5 newtons (N) and ii) an attracting force.

Using the Meissner effect in superconductors, demonstrated here is the capability to create an arbitrarily high magnetic flux density (also sometimes referred to as “flux squeezing”). This technique has immediate applications for numerous technologies. For example, it allows the generation of very large magnetic fields (e.g., exceeding 1 Tesla) for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the generation of controlled magnetic fields for advanced superconducting quantum computing devices, and/or the like. The magnetic field concentration/increased flux density approaches can be applied to both static magnetic fields (i.e., direct current (DC) magnetic fields) and time-varying magnetic fields (i.e., alternating current (AC) magnetic fields) up to microwave frequencies.

Disclosed herein is a non-reciprocal circuit element that includes a magnetic rotator and a permanent magnet that applies a magnetic field to the magnetic rotator. The magnetic rotator includes a ferrite core and a center conductor positioned between the ferrite core and the permanent magnet. The center conductor has an upper surface facing the permanent magnet, a side surface perpendicular to the upper surface, and an upper surface side corner part constituted by an end portion of the upper surface and one end portion of the side surface. A fillet is formed at the upper surface side corner part.

An electromagnetic soliton generator system controls the magnetic soliton such that the orientation, rotation rate, pitch angle, and magnetic field strength of the solitons are modified to provide the described standing waves and generate a magnetic flux differential.

The present disclosure provides a stellarator magnet based on cubic permanent magnet blocks and an arrangement optimization method thereof. For the characteristic that a three-dimensional magnet coil of a stellarator is complex in structure, the present disclosure provides the stellarator magnet based on the cubic permanent magnet blocks with uniform magnetization, same magnetization and same size; the magnetization directions of the cubic permanent magnet blocks are defined in a limited number of fixed alternative directions; the magnetic field configuration of the stellarator is generated by dipole magnetic fields provided by the permanent magnet blocks and planar coils, so that the device complexity of the stellarator is reduced, and the difficulty and cost of the machining and installation of the magnet are reduced. The shape of the permanent magnet blocks can be replaced by other regular shapes, and the permanent magnet is still formed by the permanent magnet blocks with same shape, same size, uniform magnetization and same magnetization. For the magnet, the present disclosure provides a magnet arrangement optimization method of ‘local compensation’ and related optimization strategies of ‘threshold truncation,’ ‘global fine tuning,’ etc., for meeting different optimization requirements on accuracy of the magnetic fields, usage qualities of magnets, etc., and a magnetic field meeting designing requirements can be obtained.
