Abstract

Magnetic resonance is becoming a routine analysis for many applications. Present day devices include active shielding systems instead of passive ferromagnetic shields. This calls for sophisticated design techniques able to provide satisfactory performance in terms of central field homogeneity, reduced stray field and minimal superconductor’s volume. In the paper some of the possible techniques to deal with such a problem are presented and discussed.
