| Abstract | We report on the running experience with a special toroidal air-core magnet of hexagonal shape used in the magnetic spectrometer of the CHORUS experiment at CERN. The novel and unique features of this magnet allow the use of tracker planes made of straight scintillating fibres, viewed by image intensifiers, mounted very close to the magnet. |
