Abstract
An electromagnet comprising a magnetic field coil and a substantially cylindrical magnetic shield coaxially disposed around the field coil for defining a magnetic circuit therearound. The magnetic shield comprises a hollow cylindrical magnetic yoke with ring-shaped end plates at its opposite ends. The magnetic yoke's cylindrical wall has a cross-sectional area effective for accommodating the magnetic flux generated by the magnetic field coil. The magnetic yoke has a pair of thicker wall sections at first diametrically opposite positions, and a pair of thinner wall sections a second diametrically opposite positions separated by 90 degrees from the first diametrically opposite positions. The thicker and the thinner wall sections are thicker and thinner, respectively, than a mean required wall thickness which is a wall thickness necessary for providing to the magnetic yoke a cross-sectional area for effectively accommodating the magnetic flux generated by the magnetic field coil.
