  • Abstract
    A systematic test of Ic, hysteresis loss and RRR on advanced Nb3Sn strands from industrial production has been carried out at European Laboratories, highlighting the reproducibility of the test results, the calibration, the accuracy, as well as the scattering among specimens of the same type. Practical recommendations are drawn for reliable acceptance testing of large series production of Nb3Sn strands
