Thermal stability and current transfer in twisted-pair helium gas-cooled MgB₂ DC cables

CERN’s helium gas-cooled, twisted-pair superconducting cable design, typically consisting of intercalated superconducting and copper (stabilising) tapes, is a novel design which offers low cable inductance for high-current DC power transmission. The electrical and thermal contacts between the copper...
