Abstract
The Laboratoire National des Champs Magnétiques Intenses (LNCMI) is a French host facility for experiments in high magnetic fields. Internal research is carried out in the lab and experimental time is allocated to external researchers. The LNCMI is a founding member of the European Magnetic Field Laboratory (EMFL) with the Hochfeld-Magnetlabor in Dresden (HLD) and the High Field Magnet Laboratory in Nijmegen (HFML). While static fields up to 37 T are produced in Grenoble, the Toulouse facility is dedicated to the generation of pulsed magnetic fields. It offers 98.8 T nondestructively and 209 T with a semi-destructive Megagauss installation. We focus here on the nondestructive activities. All the electromagnets that generate these high fields and their associated capacitor banks are developed in the laboratory. Here, we present the developments realized during the last five years with the complete reconstruction of the main capacitor banks of the laboratory.
