Abstract
A 5000 A-12 T fully stable Nb/sub 3/Sn superconductor has to be produced for the insert magnet of the high-field test facility being built at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory. A process is described which permits the fabrication of long lengths of large fully transposed monolithic superconductors containing in excess of 100,000 filaments of Nb/sub 3/Sn. Measurements of critical current as a function of magnetic field and longitudinal strain on prototype samples are reported.
