Self-field Effects on JC(B,T) Measurements of Nb-Ti Strands in High Magnetic Fields (2018)
Journal Article
Ridgeon, F., Raine, M., Lakrimi, M., Thomas, A., Boutboul, T., & Hampshire, D. (2018). Self-field Effects on JC(B,T) Measurements of Nb-Ti Strands in High Magnetic Fields. IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 28(4), Article 9001805. https://doi.org/10.1109/tasc.2018.2808370

We have investigated the applied magnetic field, temperature, and self-field dependence of the critical current density of a Nb-Ti strand produced for the ITER Poloidal Field conductor. Measurements were made on a standard ITER barrel in magnetic fie... Read More about Self-field Effects on JC(B,T) Measurements of Nb-Ti Strands in High Magnetic Fields.

Superconducting Properties of Titanium alloys (Ti-64 and Ti-6242) for critical current barrels (2016)
Journal Article
Ridgeon, F., Raine, M., Halliday, D., Lakrimi, M., Thomas, A., & Hampshire, D. (2017). Superconducting Properties of Titanium alloys (Ti-64 and Ti-6242) for critical current barrels. IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 27(4), Article 4201205. https://doi.org/10.1109/tasc.2016.2645378

We have measured the superconducting properties of the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V (Ti-64) as-supplied and following two of the heat treatment schedules used for the Nb3Sn strands in the ITER tokamak. The Ti-64 alloy is the standard choice in the superc... Read More about Superconducting Properties of Titanium alloys (Ti-64 and Ti-6242) for critical current barrels.
