Method for charging a superconductor magnet system, with a main superconductor bulk magnet and a shield superconductor bulk magnet
13 Dec 22
Charging method for a superconductor magnet system with reduced stray field, weight and space includes: arranging the system within a charger magnet bore; with Tmain>Tmaincrit and Tshield>Tshieldcrit, applying a current Icharger to the charger magnet and increasing Icharger to a first current I1>0; lowering a main superconductor bulk magnet temperature Tmain to an operation temperature Tmainop, with Tmainop<Tmaincrit, while keeping Tshield>Tshieldcrit; lowering Icharger to a second current I2<0, thereby inducing a persistent current IPmain in the main magnet; lowering a shield magnet temperature Tshield to an operation temperature Tshieldop, with Tshieldop<Tshieldcrit; increasing Icharger to zero, thereby inducing a persistent current IPshield in the shield magnet; removing the magnet system from the charger bore, and keeping Tmain≤Tmainop with Tmainop<Tmaincrit and Tshield≤Tshieldop with Tshieldop<Tshieldcrit; where: Tmaincrit: main magnet critical temperature and Tshieldcrit: shield magnet critical temperature.

Physical-chemical Property Scoring for Structure Elucidation In Ion Spectrometry
8 Dec 22
Disclosed is a method of associating molecular structures with signal peaks in spectrometry data obtained from separation according to one or more physical-chemical properties, comprising, as the case may be repeatedly: providing one or more signal peaks in acquired spectrometry data being related to an experimental value of mobility or a related property; ascertaining one or more molecular structure candidates suitable for being associated with the one or more signal peaks; providing by one of calculating, estimating, deriving and deducing for each molecular structure candidate a distribution of first match scores as a function of mobility; defining a presumed first match score for each molecular structure candidate as output from the respective distribution on applying the experimental value of mobility of the one or more signal peaks; and using the presumed first match score in a step of associating a molecular structure with the one or more signal peaks.
