Abstract Scope |
Thermomagnetic processing, or the application of a magnetic field during heat treatment of materials, has a variety of beneficial effects on many conventional and experimental processes. These benefits can include lower annealing temperatures, faster kinetics, a transformed phase space, and an improved energy cost of the desired processes. However, little work exists to explain the underlying causes of these observable effects. We have designed and tested a new in-situ, induction heating insert for the direct heating of materials, designed in tandem with superconducting magnet sample environments on neutron characterization beamlines. We will be discussing the development of this design, the controls that are necessary for its use, and the finer points of operating this new capability in neutron scattering experiments.
