A secondary coil circuit for use with a multi-section protected superconductive magnet coil circuit

A secondary coil circuit for use with a multi-section protected superconductive magnet coil circuit is disclosed herein. The secondary coil circuit includes two circuit nodes, a ramping switch electrically connected between the two circuit nodes, and a number of secondary coils electrically connected between the two circuit nodes. The secondary coils are made of wire having substantially superconductive capability when cooled below a characteristic critical temperature level and conducting electric current below a characteristic critical current level. The secondary coils are sized and positioned relative to the superconductive magnet coils situated in the individual sections of the multi-section protected superconductive magnet coil circuit so as to functionally cooperate with the multi-section protected superconductive magnet coil circuit in producing and maintaining a magnetic field that is substantially homogeneous. In one embodiment, the secondary coil circuit is inductively decoupled from each individual section of the multi-section protected superconductive magnet coil circuit.
