Abstract

Various configurations of NbTi and Nb <inf xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</inf> Sn superconductors are of potential value for a large number of applications involving both dc and pulsed fields. The great diversity of superconductor magnet designs has required the development of a broad range of new conductor configurations. In design of conductors several objectives must be considered including stability, mechanical strength, cost and ease of handling. These objectives can be met through the use of monoliths, special sheathing, mixed matrices, cables, braids and combinations of these. Such combinations can be constructed to more closely match the required specifications than may be possible by using only one technique.
