Abstract

There is provided a superconducting magnet device that suppresses interference of a part of a tape wire wound around a center axis with another adjacent part. The number of unit wire layer turns of a first coil among the plurality of first coils is smaller than a mean value of the respective numbers of unit wire layer turns of the plurality of first coils, the number of unit wire layer turns of each of the first coils being expressed by a mean value of the respective numbers of turns of the tape wire in the plurality of wire layers, the first coil being disposed at such a position that compressive force acting on the first coil in a direction in which the center axis extends is the largest on the assumption that the respective numbers of unit wire layer turns of the plurality of first coils were the same.
