The application of superconductivity to the large magnets required for charged particle spectroscopy in high energy physics experiments, and for plasma containment in fusion experiments, has resulted in a spectacular leap in the efficiency of these devices. First applied in the late 1960s, the technology has progressed to meet increasingly demanding goals of the experiments and has stimulated important development of the associated conductors. In this article we describe briefly the basic requirements that determine the design of the different types of magnets. This is followed by descriptions of examples of representative working and projected magnets, as well as essential auxiliary equipment. An overview is provided of ongoing development that may impact on the design of future magnets.

Superconducting Magnets for High Energy Physics Accelerators are entering a new era. The successful operation of the LHC in the last decade has marked the summit of the Nb-Ti technology exploitation initiated by the Tevatron. Now, after two decades of development, Nb3Sn technology for accelerators is becoming mature and the construction of the high luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) magnets will be the most tangible sign of the new phase, with magnets that will operate well beyond the symbolic threshold of 10 T. In addition, 30 years after its discovery, the high temperature superconductors (HTSs) for accelerator magnets are under development and test, to understand if these materials can enable the 20 T range for next accelerator/colliders foreseen after 2030. The paper reviews the main issues and the criticalities of the magnets’ development for the next future project, HL-LHC, and gives the prospect for the design and technological effort that is underway in magnet technology for the energy Frontier (FCC/HE-LHC).
