The strongest, quietest steady and slowly varying magnetic fields in the world.
Home to 14 magnets, powered by 56 megawatts and spanning more than 15,000 square feet, the DC Field Facility offers researchers the unparalleled combination of the strongest, quietest magnetic fields in the world, coupled with state-of-the-art instrumentation and experimental expertise.
The research is supported by magnet plant and cryogenic system operators and technicians who design, build and repair instruments for user research. More than two dozen world-class research faculty work directly with users to get the best measurements and data.
