Diffusion-Bonding Between Strands and Modeling of Splices of Nb3Sn Rutherford Cables

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Nikolay Bykovskiy

Particle accelerators foresee the use of Nb3Sn in the next generation of dipole magnets. A common design strategy is to grade the coil, i.e., to optimize the quantity of superconductor in the turns with respect to the magnetic field intensity. As a consequ ...
