This note presents a superconducting joint technique for the development of MgB 2
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) magnets. The MgB 2 superconducting joint was …

Technical MgB 2 wires usually have a sheath composite consisting of different metals. For
the inner sheath with direct contact to the superconducting filament, chemically inert Nb may …

This study presents the investigation of superconducting joints fabricated using multifilament
magnesium diboride (MgB 2) wires for the development of persistent-current mode magnetic …

We investigated the influence of reactivity of commonly used sheath materials (Fe, SS, Cu,
and Ni) with Mg/B, processed by in situ powder in sealed tube method on superconducting …

A series of C doped and undoped MgB 2 tapes sintered at 600–950 C was fabricated. The
relationships between the critical current properties, crystallinity and microstructures were …

Stabilized four-filament SiC-added in situ MgB 2 wires were prepared by the rectangular
wire-in-tube (RWIT) technique, using boron powders of different purity (90% and 99%), SiC …

Abstract Bulk (MgB 2) 0.96 Ni 0.04 samples doping with premilled Ni powders were sintered
at 750° C for 30 min. During sintering, liquid Mg–Ni phase prompts solid–solid reaction …

Abstract (MgB 2) 1− x Ni x bulk samples (x= 0.0, 0.04 and 0.06) were synthesized using a
differential thermal analysis apparatus at 750 C. By means of scanning electron microscopy …

In a voltage–current measurement of a superconductor the sample must be kept at a
constant temperature. Otherwise, the measured critical currents and n values are distorted …

Cost-effective MgB 2 wires are highly sought after to replace the widely used NbTi
conductors in superconducting magnets, eg for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). One …
