FSUMRD was created in 2017 when the Hahn-Meitner Institute wanted the MagLab to build a world-unique magnet for neutron scattering at 67% higher field than available elsewhere at that time. FSUMRD also served as a vehicle for the MagLab to provide a Nb3Sn CICC coil to the magnet lab in Nijmegen, The Netherlands and is presently facilitating the MagLab partnering with Oxford Instruments Nano-Science to develop high field magnets based on Bi-2212 superconductors for use in nuclear magnetic resonance.
