General

Welcome

It is my pleasure to invite you to the 2019 Magnet Technology Conference MT26. The MT conference series is the most important international forum addressing all aspects of magnet research, development, construction, testing, and operation. The focus lies in superconducting technology, but resistive magnets are also covered. We expect an attendance of around 1000 of the top scientists and engineers involved in research and development of magnets throughout the world.

Vancouver will be host city for the Magnet Technology Conference MT26 in 2019. TRIUMF, Canada’s national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics, will be the host organization. The tradition of past MTs will be continued in a convenient downtown location: just 25 minutes from the airport YVR by public transport, all accommodations, restaurants and attractions in downtown are in walking distance.

Peer-reviewed papers submitted by conference attendees will be published in a special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity (TAS).

We are looking forward to a diverse and exciting conference program and invite you to come numerously.

Travel / Hotel

About Vancouver

The city of Vancouver is located on the mainland of North America, in the southwest corner of British Columbia, which is the westernmost of Canada's ten provinces. It is bordered by the Pacific Ocean and the Coastal range mountains, providing plenty outdoor activities, winter and summer. It is being said Vancouver is the only major city where you can go skiing and take a dip in the ocean on the very same day (without freezing too much). Having hosted the 2010 Winter Olympic Games, it offers rich cultural diversity, spectacular scenery, world-class meeting facilities and a wealth of amenities. Conference venues, accommodation, restaurants, theatres, and recreational opportunities are readily available in this beautiful Pacific Coast location. Vancouver has all of the services necessary to accommodate every need and ensure that MT26 is a success. The city has an international reputation of being a great place to host conferences.

Presentation details: https://indico.cern.ch/event/763185/sessions/312089/#20190924

 

Session Moderator: Joseph Minervini, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

 

The Special session will discuss status, magnet and conductor technology needs for future very high magnetic field applications. Possible potentially-commercial or large-volume applications include imaging, rotating machinery, fusion and accelerator technology. In these applications, high fields promise the system performance improvements beyond magnetic field-generating assembly, compact devices and reduced weight. Several presentations will address status of the high-field, >10 tesla, ReBCO, BSCCO and TMC conductors. HTS and TMC conductor needs will be discussed including technical characteristics and manufacturing demands. The magnet technology challenges include but not limited to interactions with the system components, high forces and stresses, quench protection, operation at high currents, high voltage insulation, manufacturing issues.

This includes presentations in oral or poster format. The presentation should be given at the appointed time in the program, by the appointed author or co-author. For posters, presentation means that an author is available during the duration of the poster session to discuss the work and answer questions. Posting of the pages of the manuscript does not constitute presentation. Changes to the program, which have been approved by the MT26 Program Chair, will be allowed for submitted manuscripts. 

 

An abstract accepted for presentation at MT26 may not lead to a published paper in TAS. The Scope of TAS is described here.

Metrosil varistors are manufactured by M&I Materials Ltd, providing superfast, high energy discharge for many applications. For example, within superconducting, a typical protection approach to a quench event would be to switch-in a low resistive load to dissipate magnetic energy. However, the energy from the magnetic field can be extracted at a much faster rate using Metrosil varistors. Our assemblies have been tested on superconducting systems at CERN where a rapid current decay was favourably observed.
