Abstract :
The paper reviews advances in superconducting magnet technologies for particle accelerators and detectors in high-energy and astro-particle physics experiments. In the accelerator magnets, the status of NbTi superconducting magnet is reviewed and the development of Nb3Sn magnets is discussed. The advances in aluminum stabilized NbTi superconducting magnets for particle detectors, such as ATLAS and CMS, and for astro-particle physics such as AMS and BESS are also discussed.
