flag Chinese scientists achieve a 35.1-tesla steady magnetic field using a superconducting magnet, advancing fusion and tech research.

flag Chinese scientists have set a new world record by creating a steady magnetic field of 35.1 tesla—equivalent to 351,000 gauss—using a fully superconducting magnet developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Plasma Physics. flag The magnet, which operated stably for 30 minutes, combines high- and low-temperature superconducting materials in a nested design to overcome extreme stress and field challenges. flag Achieved in collaboration with Tsinghua University and other institutions, the breakthrough supports fusion energy research, including China’s role in the ITER project, and advances applications in magnetic resonance, maglev transport, space propulsion, and efficient power transmission. flag The success marks progress toward fully localized superconducting technology and strengthens China’s position in high-field magnet innovation.
