摘要
Several new persistent-current superconducting magnet applications become possible for Nb3Sn when joints can be fabricated that are superconducting over the full range of temperatures and fields accessible with Nb3Sn. Melt-forming has been found to be an effective way to form such a joint. Both tungsten inert gas welding and laser welding have been used successfully for this purpose. Methods for fabrication, microstructures, and performance of melt-formed Nb3Sn superconducting joints are discussed in detail.
