Abstract
It may be possible to achieve stable confinement of large dc levitated superconducting rings for controlled thermonuclear research by surrounding the ring with superconducting walls. The requirements for such confining walls are given in terms of calculated field strength and surface current density for a superconducting ring between two flat superconducting plates. The ``spring constant'' of such a magnetic suspension has been calculated as a function of geometry. Flux penetration data have been obtained for 0.005‐in.‐thick Nb–Ti sheets in several layers and are compared with the requirements for design of stabilizing walls.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
