A Split Magnet is a resistive electromagnet that is separated into two halves, with the small gap that divides the two sides allowing access to a strong magnetic field. The combination of an accessible gap and strong magnetic field allows for the research of how far-infrared particles scatter. In addition, the magnet can also rotate up to 90°, allowing for the magnet to become parallel to the floor. The magnet uses a combination of 28 MW, a current of 160,000 amps and 13380 liters of water (for cooling purposes) per minute used. The strongest (and only) split helix magnet in the world is currently located in Florida State University at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, and can generate a field of 25 tesla.
