High-TC superconducting lead assembly in a cryostat dual penetration for refrigerated superconductive magnets

摘要

This invention relates to high-Tc superconducting lead assemblies in a cryostat dual penetration for refrigerated superconductive magnets. Such structures of this type, generally, provide electrically isolated current paths with minimal heat leak between the 10K thermal station and the 50K thermal station while allowing for differential thermal contraction in the assembly, thus avoiding undesirable stresses in the leads.
