✦ Synopsis

Transport critical currents of short lengths of high T c superconducting composite tapes have been measured as a function of magnetic field applied parallel to and perpendicular to the tape surface. Anisotropy factors have been calculated from the results on a number of samples, differing only in their final annealing temperatures, and show great similarity for samples whose critical current densities vary widely. We explain these results in terms of the different microstructures of the samples. We discuss n values and present some data on Ag magnetoresistance. Mechanisms leading to a degradation in Jc as a result of thermal cycling are described along with possible solutions.

The influence of thermal cycling between room temperature and 77 K on the critical current of silver-sheathed YBaCuO and Bi(Pb)SrCaCuO superconducting composite wires and tapes was studied. The critical current was reduced by cycling when the strength of the oxide was low but not when it was high. T

## Abstract A new research tool is described which permits determination of short‐time elevated temperature properties of metals and alloys. Test specimens are heated by their own resistance to the flow of a large magnitude heating current, and a rapid‐acting electronic‐proportioning rate‐control a
