SUPERCONDUCTING-MAGNET ADJUSTMENT METHOD
First Claim
1. A superconducting-magnet adjustment method for adjusting homogeneity of a magnetic field generated in a predetermined space by a superconducting magnet, comprising the steps of:
- measuring the magnetic field in said predetermined space; and
performing shimming by arranging a plurality of shims of a ferromagnetic material in the superconducting magnet,said step of shimming including arranging said plurality of shims at positions that make the magnetic field homogeneous, based on a result of measurement in said step of measuring the magnetic field and that provide a predetermined value of an electromagnetic force caused by the magnetic field to act on said plurality of shims.
