Superconducting Composites

Abstract

The analysis of the properties and the fields of the applications of multifilamentary superconducting composites is made. Such materials are used to create high field superconducting magnets because they can reach the high value of the critical current density without the loss of the superconductivity. The presented issue contains a review of the important factors governing the choice of superconductors for practical applications. Therefore, the basic theoretical concepts and the formulae required for the laboratory investigation and technical application of these materials are given. The fields of the superconductor's applications are discussed in detail.
