Abstract
Many advantages are gained by deflecting weakly interacting cosmic rays in magnetised iron instead of the conventional air gap of an electromagnet. A solid iron magnet has been constructed in the form of a rectangular transformer core with excitation windings on opposite sides of the core. The design is based on the results of model experiments byBennett andNash (1) on the variation of induction throughout the iron and the leakage field above and below the magnet. When the magnet is operated at a power of 2 kW (mean ∫B dl=982 kG cm), the variation of integrated magnetic induction for vertical particle trajectories, is less than ± 3%
