Abstract
A method for connecting two or more superconducting wires (), each comprising at least one filament (-) that contains MgB, wherein the superconducting connection is realized through exposed end regions () of the filaments (-) via a superconducting matrix, is characterized in that a bulk powder () of a high-temperature superconductor (HTS) powder with a transition temperature of T>40K is provided, into which the exposed end regions () of the filaments (-) project, wherein the Boron of the Boron powder of the bulk powder () is in amorphous modification, and the bulk powder () is compacted together with the projecting exposed end regions () of the filaments (-) to form a compressed element (). The method improves the quality, in particular, the current carrying capacity and the critical magnetic field strength of a superconducting connection of two MgBwires.
