Circumventing such radiation is especially problematic with colliding beams having quite different magnetic rigidities as occurs in both electron-hadron and asymmetric-momentum electron colliders where one must shield an incoming electron beam from the strong magnetic fields needed to focus the other beam. After reviewing some magnetic configurations used to date, we introduce a new 'sweet spot' coil concept that was invented for the eRHIC project proposed at BNL. Sweet spot coils have conductors arranged so that there is an open, low field strength path through the main high field superconducting coil structure. Sweet spot configurations tend to be more efficient than other active and passive shielding solutions. Dipole and quadrupole sweet spot magnet designs examples are presented in this paper along with ongoing R&D to implement and test these concepts.
