Abstract
The KU Leuven pulsed magnet facility was established in the sixties by the late Prof. A. Van Itterbeek (Van Itterbeek et al., Appl. Sci. Res., 18:105, 1967, Van Itterbeek et al., Les Champs Magnetiques Intenses, vol. 379, 1966). During the period 1972–1997 the laboratory was directed by Prof. F. Herlach (Witters and Herlach, J. Phys. D, Appl. Phys., 16:255, 1983, Li and Herlach, Meas. Sci. Technol., 6:1035, 1995, Herlach et al., Physica B, 201:542, 1994) who continuously developed the facility further along two lines: improved pulsed-field-coil design and enhanced capabilities for experimentation. From 1998 on, the facility is lead by Prof. V.V. Moshchalkov, in close collaboration with Prof. E.F. Herlach and Prof. J. Vanacken. Recently, the laboratory has been completely renewed; its present configuration is based on the former installation of the High Field Magnet Laboratory at the Radboud University Nijmegen (the Netherlands) (Rosseel et al., IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond., 16:1664, 2006), which was originally developed in collaboration with the KU Leuven spin-off company METIS (http://www.metis.be/).
