A magnet apparatus which comprises a first vacuum chamber 2, a second vacuum chamber 4, a first magnet M disposed within the first vacuum chamber 2 such that the first magnet can be thermally isolated from the exterior of the first vacuum chamber, and a load connector 22 extending from the first vacuum chamber 2 into the second vacuum chamber 4 so that a load on the first magnet M can be transferred to the second vacuum chamber, wherein the load connector 22 is in thermal contact with the first magnet and can be thermally isolated from the exterior of the first vacuum chamber and the exterior of the second vacuum chamber. The first vacuum chamber 2 comprises a first sealing arrangement 24 through which the load connector 22 extends and the second vacuum chamber 4 comprises a second sealing arrangement 28 through which the load connector extends. A third vacuum chamber 46 disposed between the first vacuum chamber and the second vacuum chamber is formed between the first and second sealing arrangements 24, 28 and sealed from the first and second vacuum chambers by the first and second sealing arrangements. The first sealing arrangement 24 comprises a flexible thermally insulating coupling 32 provided between the load connector 22 and an inner wall of the first vacuum chamber 2, and the second sealing arrangement comprises a flexible thermally insulating coupling provided between the load connector and an inner wall of the second vacuum chamber 4. |
