Superconductors for High-Fields Applications

The groups main projects are:

• Development of (Nb,Ta,Ti)₃Sn superconducting wires for over 21 Tesla compact magnetic resonance magnets.
• 

  21 T magnet.

  Field and strain scaling laws for Nb₃Sn bronze wires
  
• Magnetic response of Nb₃Sn single crystals and bronze routemultifilamentary wires by fundamental and higher harmonics of the ac magnetic susceptibility
• TEM compositional analysis of Nb₃Sn bronze wires
  Inhomogenous phase distribution in Fe-sheated ex-situ MgB₂ tapes
• Effect of HIP treatment of Bi-2223/Ag tapes.

The main activities carried out under MaNEPare the development of both low- and high-Tc superconducting materials for high-fields application.
