A magnetic field of 19.3 T was achieved with a superconducting magnet at an operational temperature of 1.8 K without any quenching. At the moment that is the world's largest magnetic field for superconducting magnets. This magnet system is a rigid superconducting system consisting of a NbTi outer magnet generating the 11 T background field and several Nb/sub 3/Sn insert magnets which use multifilamentary Nb/sub 3/Sn conductors in react and wind and wind and react technique. The test facility was designed from the beginning to permit an exchange of the partial coils. Thus, 19.3 T is not the upper field of the magnet system since the innermost 19.3 T coil was not optimized. A 20 T coil is under construction with a 30 mm clear bore.
