Recent developments in the use of superconductors for the generation of high magnetic fields are reviewed. The physical bases for high-field superconductivity are discussed relative to type II superconductors, metal-insulator composites and metal-metal composites. Some characteristics of supermagnets are described, and manifestations and possible causes of current-degradation phenomena are considered. Finally, advanced supermagnet concepts which might offer some prospect of circumventing degradation problems are explored.
