Abstract
A superconducting magnet apparatus comprises a superconducting coil, a persistent current switch with a small current bearing capacity, and a protective element respectively connected in parallel with the superconducting coil and an emergency run down unit including a heater circuit having a heater power source, a heater element disposed in proximity to the superconducting coil, and a heater circuit switch connected in series with the heater element. Thus, the heater element is energized and warmed to bring at least a part of the superconducting coil into a normal state.
