REBCO WG meeting

Thursday 7 Oct 2021, 11:00 → 12:20 US/Pacific

• What performances and parameters should the conductor have? How can we make magnets using these conductors? 
• What is the maximum dipole field a REBCO magnet can generate?  
• What is the magnet performance? How does it quench? What is the field quality? 
• Does the magnet performance degrade, e.g., during operation, after thermal cycles? If so, how can we prevent it?  
• How can we characterize the performance for long conductors? 

1 REBCO tapes with high normal zone propagation velocity: an avenue for faster quench detection/protection systems in REBCO magnets?

Prof. Frédéric Sirois and Dr. Christian Lacroix from Polytechnique Montréal will discuss their recent achievements on significantly boosted NZPV in REBCO tapes and its impact on the quench detection and protection.

20' presentation + 20' Q&A

Speakers: Dr Christian Lacroix (Polytechnique Montréal), Prof. Frédéric Sirois (Polytechnique Montréal)
