Abstract

A B S T R A C T In January 2026, the world record for a 35.6 T-35 mm all superconducting user magnet was achieved. The 35.6T user magnet consisted of the REBCO high temperature superconducting insert magnet and a low-temperature superconducting magnet. Furthermore, the REBCO high temperature superconducting insert magnet itself also reached 27.5T in liquid He, which also set a world record for the all high temperature superconducting user magnet. This magnet holds great significance for both cutting-edge scientific research and superconducting magnet technology.
