The Magnesium Diboride (MgB2), is a material known since early 1950's, but, whose superconducting (SC) properties were defined in 2001, positioning this as a High-Temperature superconductor material (Tc= 39-40 K). The absence of weak-link and the simple crystalline structure allows to produce wires using the powder in tube (PIT) technique, allowing the industrial development and application....

Several present and future-relevant technologies are based on high magnetic fields provided by the superior current carrying properties of high temperature superconductors (HTS) at low temperatures. Up to 600 m long YBCO coated conductors are commercially produced. Defects, material faults and magnetic fields suppress the critical current, Ic, and determine the maximum loss-free current...
