Synopsis: We have developed a database for high magnetic field science and technology. Tsukuba Mag net Laboratory (TML) of the National Research Institute for Metals (NRIM) holds one of the world's leading high magnetic field facilities, incorporating external scientists from around the globe. We have established cooperative relationships with other high magnetic field laboratories worldwide. The NRIM is also a central organization of VAMAS activities for the standardization of measurement

... ds for superconductive ma terials. The database contains experimental results obtained at our facilities, standard references given by VAMAS and technological information provided by high magnetic field laboratories. However, from the user's point of view the database should be global, preferably including other fields of superconductivity and cryogenics. We will embody up-to-date results reported in symposiums, conferences and journals, and bring together existing data scattered throughout different sources into our database. We call it the "Engineering Database for Applied Superconductivity and Cryogenics". Our system also includes "Reference Database" dealing with data sources, and "Technical Terms Database" as a thesaurus of the technical terms used in the field of superconductivity and cryogenics. The database can be accessed from around the world through the Internet using a web browser. This project will be conducted in cooperation with the Cryogenic Association of Japan. We would appreciate researchers' contributions to the engineering database.
