Evidence that transverse variability of critical current density can greatly mitigate screening current stress in high field REBCO magnets by Jeseok Bang, Jonathan Lee, Griffin Bradford, Kwangmin Kim, Xinbo Hu, Dmytro Abraimov, Jan Jaroszynski, Anatolii Polyanskii, So Noguchi, Seungyong Hahn, David C. Larbalestier

“…Abstract Plastic damage of REBCO (REBa2Cu3O7-x, where RE=rare earth) coated conductors by screening current stress (SCS) is a significant concern for ultra-high-field superconducting magnets. Indeed, the third Little Big Coil (LBC3), a REBCO magnet that generated a record, high field of 45.5 T, showed wavy plastic damage produced by excess SCS in all pancakes except two made with single-slit conductors having their slit edges pointing inward towards the magnet center. …”
