| 1. A low eddy current cryogen circuit for superconducting magnets comprising:
at least a first cooling coil comprising an electrically conducting material; and
at least one electrical isolator incorporated in the first cooling coil, the electrical isolator located to inhibit induced
eddy current loops in the cryogen circuit due to inductive coupling of the first cooling coil with eddy current inducing field
sources.
