โฆ Synopsis
Significant progress in the field of superconductivity has been made since the second Symposium. The discovery and subsequent development of high temperature superconductors (HTS) is without question the most important contribution made in this timeframe. However, very significant progress has also been made in magnet technology based on low temperature superconductors (LTS). Among the most significant developments are ultra-fine multicore superconductors that can be used in 50-60 Hz electrical machinery, the now widespread use of superconducting MRI systems and the introduction of large scale magnets for nuclear fusion test devices and high energy physics experiments, both for the ring magnet systems and for the detectors.

The resistive transition process in superconductors stabilized with high-purity normal metal results in a localized transient level of ohmic heat generation well in excess of the steady level. These transient losses result from the redistribution of the transport current by diffusion into the normal
