... . Although scientific opportunities increase as available magnetic field strengths are increased, scientific thresholds appear to exist in the vicinity of 75 T (e.g., nuclear magnetic resonance becomes comparable in frequency, hence sensitivity, to Xband electron spin resonance)

... Hence, in addition to an increased commitment to basic research in superconducting materials, there should be increased funding for materials processing and magnet technology, so that some of the known higher-field superconductors might be fabricated into practical magnets. A facility affording a higher magnetic field, as discussed above, whether it be 75 T or an intermediate field, achieved on the way toward the long-range goal of 75 T, would be of inestimable value to the high-field superconductivity and magnet development communities.

... As corollaries to these principal recommendations, we add the following: • As a necessary concomitant to the above recommendations, we recommend the allocation of research support sufficient to allow the exploitation of high magnetic fields. • We recommend that facilities receive sufficient funds so that the necessary supporting equipment (e.g., optical spectrometers, ESR and NMR spectrometers)
