Comparative study of heat transfer from Nb-Ti and Nb_{3}Sn coils to He II

In superconducting magnets, the energy deposited or generated in the coil must be evacuated to prevent temperature rise and consequent transition of the superconductor to the resistive state. The main barrier to heat extraction is represented by the electric insulation wrapped around superconducting...
