Abstract

A cryostat configuration has a magnet coil system (2) disposed in a helium tank (1), and a horizontal room temperature bore (3) which provides access to a volume under investigation in the center of the magnet coil system (2). The helium tank (1) contains undercooled liquid helium at a temperature of less than 3.5 K, in particular of approximately 2 K, and the cryostat configuration has at least one vertical tower structure (4) on its upper side for filling in and evaporating helium. The tower structure (4) contains a container (5) with liquid helium of 4.2 K which is separated from the helium tank (1) by a thermal barrier (7), and the helium tank (1) contains an undercooling unit (9). This yields a compact cryostat configuration which achieves continuous, stable long-term operation with an undercooled high-field magnet coil.
