✦ Synopsis

In this paper two designs of magnetic separator are described. One is suitable for separating a small quantity of superconducting material from a large quantity of nonsuperconducting material. The other is particularly useful for the rapid separation of large quantities of superconducting material. Each uses a permanent magnet, runs immersed in liquid nitrogen and is very simple to build.
