✦ Synopsis

The paper investigates the use of a bulk high temperature superconducting cylindrical collar to stabilise the field drift of a resistive MR imaging magnet. An experiment using a model H core magnet is described in which the collar surrounds the iron circuit close to a pole. The tests indicate that improved flux stability can be obtained.
