"Performance of MgB2 superconducting wire fabricated with non-identical" by Minoru Maeda, Akiyoshi Matsumoto et al.
Core densification in superconducting wire is highly desirable for obtaining high performance superconducting wires. Since voids hinder current flow in the superconducting core and they directly affect electrical property. In this study, we proposed a magnesium powder blending to regulate the porous properties. Our study delved deeper into the relationship between various particle parameters (such as particle size and distribution), impurities (MgO and Mg(OH)2), superconducting transition temperature, and current carrying capacity for MgB2 superconducting wires. We found a significant correlat...
