Temperature Dependence of Irradiation-Induced Magnetic Flux Loss in Nd 2 Fe 14 B Permanent Magnets

Nd2Fe14B permanent magnets were irradiated with 20 MeV protons at 300 K and at 15 K, and the flux loss was measured as a function of the irradiation dose. The results show that at 15 K the Nd2Fe14B magnets can withstand particle radiation at least 1000 times more than at room temperature.
