9781604565669 Magnesium diboride (MgB2) superconductor research.
So-called conventional superconductors, of which magnesium diboride is a member, typically become superconductors below 20 kelvins.
We're excited to be getting the word out about the broad range of superconductor products we offer or are developing here in the Advanced Supercon business, including first-generation (BSCCO) and second-generation (YBCO) HTS wire and medium temperature superconductor (MTS) magnesium diboride (MgB2) wire.
