  • Abstract
    We have been developing tantalum-fiber-reinforced bronze process niobium-tin wires for use in large-scale high field magnets. They are fabricated by conventional drawing. We manufactured two kinds of the wires with different geometries but similar volume ratios. We have investigated their characteristics and have clarified that there are some differences in their superconducting critical current, critical magnetic field, critical temperature, and the influence of their heat-treatment conditions.
