Progress on Tests on Splices Between Nb3Sn Rutherford Cables for Graded High-Field Accelerator Magnets

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Mithlesh Kumar, Vincenzo D'Auria

Future high-field accelerator magnets foresee the extensive use of Nb3Sn, more expensive than the Nb-Ti of LHC. For projects involving the series production of magnets, conductor grading is mandatory in order to reduce the cost. To allow grading ...

Transient Electronics for Smart Biodegradable Medical Implants

Matthieu Jean Michel Rüegg

Bioresorbable implantable medical devices show great potential for applications requiring medical care over well-defined periods of time. Such implants naturally degrade and resorb in the body, which eliminates adverse long-term effects or the need for a s ...
