High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) in Accelerator Magnets
HTS in accelerator magnets: An exciting possibility, BNL is leading this initiative
Applications: vlhc & muon colliders/storage rings
May allow higher fields, higher operating temperature, higher heat loads and less stringent operating conditions
However, the conventional magnet designs are not well suited for them (HTS is too brittle for them)
