Abstract

Recently, much progress has been made in generation of high magnetic fields in the International MegaGauss Science Laboratory at ISSP of the University of Tokyo. The electro-magnetic flux compression method has been improved to establish the world highest indoor-field of about 730 T. In addition to the destructive methods, a new project aiming at the non-destructive generation of both long pulsed- and 100 T-fields is progressing. The long pulse project is introduced. Not only for the highest field but also for various experiments, many kinds of coils have been developed. A microscope imaging system under pulsed fields, and miniature magnets for the X-ray measurements at the synchrotron radiation facility are also presented.
