Main parameters of the cryogenic current lead for a 1.2 kA cable-in-copper conduit conductor ("twist in tube" ) type are described in this paper. It is cooled by gaseous forced-flow helium in laminary regime. The criteria and the sequence of this current lead optimization are determined. The result

A description of a novel current-lead design is given together with an assessment of the heat leakage into a liquid helium cryostat. Calculations indicate that the heat leak using these novel current-leads is of the order of ten times less than the leak that would be obtained using optimized convent
The temperature distribution and power loss of a gas-cooled current lead have been studied. The physical properties of the gas and the lead are functions of temperature. Results for various gas flows, current densities, and lead lengths are presented.
A patterning process for YBCO films is described which does not change the critical properties of the superconducting films. Improvements achieved in the preparation and measuring technique described make it possible to perform reliable and reproducible measurements of critical current density of hi
