Claim:
1. A high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnet comprising: a HTS magnet coil disposed within a cryostat; a thermo-siphon cooling system comprising a liquid cryogen, the cooling system configured to indirectly conduction cool the HTS magnet coil by nucleate boiling of the liquid cryogen that is circulated by thermo-siphon in a cooling tube attached to a heat exchanger bonded to the outside surface of the HTS magnet coil; and a supply dewar comprising a re-condenser cryocooler coldhead configured to recondense boiloff vapors generated during the nucleate boiling process, wherein the HTS magnet coil and cooling tube are thermally insulated and mechanically suspended inside the cryostat solely via a single horizontal cantilever fiber reinforced composite shell, the cantilever attached to the cryostat at one end and to the HTS magnet coil at its other end.
