Description
The proposed Future Circular Collider (FCC) would require 16 T dipole magnets of accelerator quality. To meet this demand with Nb3Sn, a Jc exceeding 1500 A/mm2 at 16 T is necessary, in a wire design suitable for industrial-scale production at a considerably lower cost than current conductor.
In the context of the FCC Study, CERN is engaged in collaborative conductor development activities with a number of industrial and academic partners to achieve these challenging goals. Whilst Nb3Sn is the primary focus of these R&D activities, other materials including MgB2 and iron-based superconductors are also included in the development programme.
This workshop is an opportunity to bring together the majority of current and planned participants in conductor development projects to share recent progress and discuss future activities. Attendance is by invitation only.
The meeting will include plenary sessions, to which all workshop participants and CERN members are invited, and closed sessions, in which meetings will be held between individual partners and a review panel of CERN staff. In parallel, visits will be arranged to a number of relevant CERN laboratories and facilities.

CNR-SPIN: Fe-based superconductors for very high field applications 20m
In this talk I will briefly review the recent developments worldwide on Fe-based superconductors, either on Powder-In-Tube and Coated Conductors, especially in terms of the critical currents at 4.2 K and high magnetic field. I will then focus on the results obtained in this field at SPIN in the collaboration with CERN within the Addendum FCC-GOV-CC-0086 of the Memorandum of Understanding FCC-GOV-CC-0004 for the FCC study.

CNR-SPIN: Development of Emerging Superconductors for High Field Applications 20m
In this talk we will report on the development at CNR-SPIN laboratory of two of the most promising superconductors for high field application: MgB2 and Bi-2212: both of them have indeed the advantage to be processed as round conductor in very long lengths by P.I.T. process. In particular, about MgB2 we will present the work performed on the superconducting powder precursors aimed to enhance their properties at high magnetic field adopting an original method to introduce doping and pinning centres. About Bi-2212 we will focus on the optimization of the mechanical and thermal processes of the wire with the aim to obtain the performances required for high field application even in long lengths through a scalable process.
This work is within a collaboration with CERN within the Addendum FCC-GOV-CC-0086 of the Memorandum of Understanding FCC-GOV-CC-0004 for the FCC study.Speaker: Andrea Malagoli (CNR-SPIN) -
