Numerical simulations of filamentary type II superconducting wires under simultaneous AC transport current and oscillating transverse magnetic fields are performed within the critical state approximation. The time dependences of the current density profiles, magnetic flux lines, local power dissipation and magnetic moment are featured. Noticeable non-homogeneous dissipation and field distortions are displayed. Also, significant differences between the obtained AC-losses and those predicted by regular approximation formulas are reported. Finally, an outstanding low pass filtering effect intrinsic to the magnetic response of the system is described.

The complex mechanisms governing charge migration in DNA oligomers reflect the rich structural and electronic properties of the molecule of life. Controlling the mechanical stability of DNA nanowires in charge transport experiments is a requisite for identifying intrinsic issues responsible for long range charge transfers. By merging density-functional-theory-based calculations and model-Hamiltonian approaches, we have studied DNA quantum transport during the stretching-twisting process of poly(GC) DNA oligomers. During the stretching process, local maxima in the charge transfer integral t between two nearest-neighbor GC pairs arise from the competition between stretching and twisting. This is reflected in local maxima for the conductance, which depend very sensitively on the coupling to the electrodes. In the case of DNA-electrode couplings smaller than t, the conductance versus stretching distance saturates to plateau in agreement with recent experimental observations.
MgB2 monofilamentary nickel-sheated tapes and wires were fabricated by means of the ex-situ powder-in-tube method using either high-energy ball milled and low temperature synthesized powders. All sample were sintered at 920 C in Ar flow. The milling time and the revolution speed were tuned in order to maximize the critical current density in field (Jc): the maximum Jc value of 6 x 10e4 A/cm2 at 5 K and 4 T was obtained corresponding to the tape prepared with powders milled for 144h at 180rpm. Vorious synthesis temperature were also investigated (730-900 C) finding a best Jc value for the wire prepared with powders synthesized at 745 C. We speculate that this optimal temperature is due to the fluidifying effect of unreacted magnesium content before the sintering process which could better connect the grains.

In DC and AC practical applications of MgB2 superconducting wires an important role is represented by the material sheath which has to provide, among other things, a suitable electrical and thermal stabilization. A way to obtain a large enough amount of low resistivity material in to the conductor architecture is to use it as external sheath. In this paper we study ex-situ multifilamentary MgB2 wires using oxide-dispersion-strengthened copper (GlidCop) as external sheath in order to reach a good compromise between critical current density and thermal properties. We prepared three GlidCop samples differing by the content of dispersed sub-microscopic Al2O3 particles. We characterized the superconducting and thermal properties and we showed that the good thermal conductivity together the good mechanical properties and a reasonable critical current density make of GlidCop composite wire a useful conductor for applications where high thermal conductivity is request at temperature above 30K, such as Superconducting-FCL.
We study mechanisms of vortex nucleation in Nb$_3$Sn Superconducting RF (SRF) cavities using a combination of experimental, theoretical, and computational methods. Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) image and energy dispersive spectrosc opy (EDS) of some Nb$_3$Sn cavities show Sn segregation at grain boundaries in Nb$_3$Sn with Sn concentration as high as $sim$35 at.% and widths $sim$3 nm in chemical composition. Using ab initio calculations, we estimate the effect excess tin has on the local superconducting properties of the material. We model Sn segregation as a lowering of the local critical temperature. We then use time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory to understand the role of segregation on magnetic vortex nucleation. Our simulations indicate that the grain boundaries act as both nucleation sites for vortex penetration and pinning sites for vortices after nucleation. Depending on the magnitude of the applied field, vortices may remain pinned in the grain boundary or penetrate the grain itself. We estimate the superconducting losses due to vortices filling grain boundaries and compare with observed performance degradation with higher magnetic fields. We estimate that the quality factor may decrease by an order of magnitude ($10^{10}$ to $10^9$) at typical operating fields if 0.03% of the grain boundaries actively nucleate vortices. We additionally estimate the volume that would need to be filled with vortices to match experimental observations of cavity heating.
Using fluorescent microthermal imaging we have investigated the origin of two-step behavior in I-V curves for a current-carrying YBa_2Cu_3O_x superconducting bridge. High resolution temperature maps reveal that as the applied current increases the fi rst step in the voltage corresponds to local dissipation (hot spot), whereas the second step is associated with onset of global dissipation throughout the entire bridge. A quantitative explanation of the experimental results is provided by a simple model for an inhomogeneous superconductor, assuming that the hot spot nucleates at a location with slightly depressed superconducting properties.
