For the current distribution inside a multifilamentary superconducting wire carring a dc transport current in a rapidly changing transverse magnetic field, inconsistencies with the existing models are shown by the following experimental evidence: when a transverse magnetic field is applied, the dist

โฆ Synopsis
In a system of parallel superconducting wires, which are connected at their ends, any two conductors form a closed superconducting loop, in which, according to the law of induction, no variation of the enclosed magnetic flux can occur. If a transverse magnetic field is applied to the system, the closed superconducting loops oppose the penetration of this field. As a consequence currents are induced in the conductors, whose magnetic field generates a certain current distribution, resulting from the geometrical arrangement of the conductors.
The theoretical treatment depends upon whether the conductors are in the mixed or in the Meissner state. The current distribution was investigated in planar wire arrangements as well as in systems with wires positioned on a circle.
