## Abstract Airβcore coils are more practical than ironβcore magnets for producing the required magnetic field distribution for electron paramagnetic resonance imaging at frequencies of a few hundred megahertz. An airβcore, airβcooled magnet/gradient coil system is presented in this paper, which is
## Abstract A planar YBa~2~Cu~3~O~x~ (YBCO) coil has been used as a pickβup coil in a nuclear magnetic resonance imager. It was found that the quality factor __Q__ of the YBCO coil was greater than its copper counterpart by approaching 50% even in a field of 0.15 T. The Q of the copper coil at 77 K
## Abstract A halfβvolume quadrature head transverse electromagnetic (TEM) coil has been constructed for 4 T imaging applications. This coil produces a sufficiently large homogeneous __B__~1~ field region for the use as a volume coil. It provides superior transmission efficiency, resulting in signi
