Advances in superconducting magnets for particle physics

The paper reviews advances in superconducting magnet technologies for particle accelerators and detectors in high-energy and astro-particle physics experiments. In the accelerator magnets, the status of NbTi superconducting magnet is reviewed and the development of Nb/sub 3/Sn magnets is discussed. The advances in aluminum stabilized NbTi superconducting magnets for particle detectors, such as ATLAS and CMS, and for astro-particle physics such as AMS and BESS are also discussed.
