Outline of Final Research Achievements

We measured the self-magnetic field of a large-scale superconducting coil manufactured using a superconducting conductor composed of many strands. As a result, it was confirmed that a shielding current having a time constant of several hundred seconds at the longest was generated in the superconducting coil. Moreover, it was clarified that the cause of such a shielding current is related to the current path at the end of the conductor. Furthermore, the relationship between the non-uniform current distribution in the superconducting conductor caused by the shielding current and the thermal stability was clarified by numerical analysis.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements
