Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a magnet arrangement capable of substantially reducing the magnetic stray field in the external environment with low manufacturing costs.SOLUTION: There is provided a magnetic resonance arrangement with a permanent magnet system and having magnet elements, pole piece elements, and yoke elements of magnetic material arranged cylinder-symmetrically with respect to the z axis. The yoke elements have a first lid (11') and a second lid (11'') and also at least one hollow cylindrical drum (12) arranged axially with respect to the z axis between the lids. The yoke elements enclose the measuring volume in the axial and radial directions. The magnet elements each include a pair of cylinder-symmetrical axial magnets (13', 13'') and also radial magnet rings (14', 14''). The axial magnets are each arranged axially adjoining the lids and are arranged radially within the radial magnet rings and respectively axially further away from the measuring volume than the radial magnet rings. The outer diameter of the axial magnets is less than or equal to the inner diameter of the radial magnet rings.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1a 【課題】低い製造コストで、外部環境の漂遊磁場を実質的に低減することができる磁石配置を提供する。【解決手段】永久磁石システムを有しており、z軸に対して筒対称に配置される磁石要素、磁極片要素および磁性材料のヨーク要素を有する磁気共鳴配置では、ヨーク要素は、第1の蓋(11')と第2の蓋(11'')とを備え、z軸に対して蓋間に軸方向に配置される少なくとも1つの中空筒状ドラム(12)をさらに備え、ヨーク要素は、軸方向および径方向で測定容積を囲み、磁石要素は各々、1対の筒対称軸方向磁石(13',13'')とさらに径方向磁石リング(14',14'')とを備え、軸方向磁石は各々、蓋に接して軸方向に配置され、径方向磁石リング内で径方向に配置され、各場合で径方向磁石リングよりも測定容積から軸方向により離れており、以下の式、軸方向磁石の外側径≦径方向磁石リングの内側径、を適用することを特徴とする。【選択図】図1a
