Superconducting Bi-2212 wire that has five times higher current and will enable superconducting magnets with over 30 Tesla
A group of scientists has discovered how to make better wires using a promising material known as Bi-2212. With this discovery comes the possibility of creating magnetic fields in excess of 30 Tesla, three to four times higher than those generated by present accelerator magnet technology. Bi-2212 stands out as the only HTS (high temperaure …
