20190313521 | DEFLECTION ELECTROMAGNET DEVICE - A deflection electromagnet device generates a high magnetic field without increasing the size of a vacuum duct to facilitate control over a beam orbit. Magnetic flux lines from a return pole pass through the vacuum duct of a high-temperature superconductor in a vacuum heat insulation container and the charged particle beam is thus deflected, thereby generating radiation. A three-pole magnetic field is formed on the beam orbit and the charged particle beam is thus deflected by individual magnetic fields, so that radiation can be generated while the charged particle beam returns to a coaxial orbit. Therefore, an increase in size of the vacuum duct can be prevented. A shielding current is dominant and the non-uniformity of the magnetic field in a z-axis direction is prevented by disposing the high-temperature superconductor having a crystal direction c-axis orthogonal to a horizontal plane in which the charged particle beam flows. | 2019-10-10 |
