Summary

Superconducting magnet technologies have been developed as the necessary technologies for high-energy physics research. One of the applications is for the high-energy accelerators, which have to be as large as possible. On the other hand, superconducting magnets have been required for particle detectors in order to obtain higher magnetic field and save electric power. Three superconducting accelerators are being operated and a large machine that uses NbTi coil cooled by He II, the LHC, is under construction. Many particle detector magnets have been developed and constructed to detect and analyse generated particles. Recent key technologies for the particle detector magnets are aluminium-stabilized superconductors and an inner winding method. Very thin detector magnets have been developed and successfully used. In the paper, superconducting magnet technologies for accelerators and particle detectors are described.
