6. T-183 characteristics at 4.2 K 6 Critical current under longitudinal field is larger than 900 A between 0 – 21 T. Test made on full width in Ø50 probe Je = 405 A/mm² at 18 T ┴ (Ic = 215 A)

7. Next steps 7 Test performances of new Ø 50 mm probe above 900 A Conduct measurements in Ø 170 mm to cross check results on longer samples What of n- value ? Needed for quench calculations ! ̶Extrapolation for Jc measurement leads to n = 45 : doubtful ̶Possibilities to test with pulse measurements Work ongoing with F. Sirois from Montreal on pulse characterization under high field :
