The discussion centers on the feasibility of designing a Bitter electromagnet capable of producing 25 Tesla (T) within a volume of approximately 500 cubic centimeters (cm³). It is established that while size does not limit the magnet's capability, the required current for such a magnet is substantial; for reference, a lab producing magnets between 20T and 45T indicates that their weakest DC field magnet operates at 17 megawatts (MW). The conversation highlights that increasing the dimensions of the magnet can maintain the same induction with the same electric power, emphasizing the importance of cooling in magnet design.
