| Overall Research Project Description | National High Magnetic Field Laboratory houses seven world-record magnets at its Tallahassee location. Some applications, such as NMR and MRI require high uniformity of the magnetic field across the sample, in addition to high field. A student with a strong interest in scientific instrumentation will work with a team at NHMFL to support and improve user operations. The student will help develop, build, and test designs, and develop techniques to improve the field quality of the world record 36 tesla high-resolution magnet. The project will involve using specialized equipment and techniques to map and correct the field of the magnet. |
| Research Tasks | The student will help develop, build, and test designs to improve the field quality of the 36 T high resolution magnet which is used by scientists from around the world. The project will involve using specialized equipment and techniques to map and correct the field of the magnet. The project may also involve performing calculations of magnetic field for different patterns and coding for data processing. Part of the work will be performed around strong magnetic fields. |
| Skills that research assistant(s) may need: | Required: Adherence to safety Recommended: comfortable with Excel, strong math background, physical abilities (may have to stand for extended periods of time, need to bend to insert probe into magnet) |
| Mentoring Philosophy | In research projects, students are our essential contributors. I see and treat students as collaborators in pursuit of the goals we aim to achieve together. |
