Abstract The establishment of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) in Tallahassee, FL and at the Los Alamos National Laboratory NM will provide the U.S. with a unique opportunity to explore new scientific phenomena in magnetic fields that are significantly higher than presently available. The facilities to be developed within the new NHMFL will include continuous fields to 45 tesla and pulsed fields to 200 tesla. We will review some of the promising new areas of the physics of quantum fluids and solids, superconductivity, materials science and engineering, and advanced technologies that will be able to be studied and developed at the new facility. An overview of the scope of the laboratories facilities, planned scheduling and the proposed timetable for the installation of magnet systems for this new national user facility is presented.
