New developments in niobium-titanium superconductors
Description
Niobium-titanium composites have been fabricated on an industrial scale since about 1966. After early optimization efforts, their properties reached a plateau from about the mid 1970's and the principal development efforts then went into manufacturing scale up and cost optimizations. The present paper was prepared for the May 1986 workshop on Superconducting Magnets and Cryogenics, organized by ICFA. It briefly reviews recent work relevant to the applications of Nb-Ti for accelerators. An overview of the magnet design aspects of superconductors was recently made, as well as the microstructural and flux pinning properties. Both Nb-Ti and Nb3Sn conductors were considered in these reviews
