Prior to 1986, superconductors with this property at very low

temperatures, below -259 ° C, were known. In 1986-1987, materials were found with a superconducting transition temperature of about -173 ° C.

Injection of superconductors on an impurity

The introduction of an impurity into

the superconductor reduces the sharpness of the transition to the superconducting state. In normal metals, the current disappears in about 10-12 seconds. In a superconductor, a current can circulate for years (theoretically 105 years!).

One of the main differences between superconductors and ideal conductors

is the Meissner effect, discovered in 1933. The phenomenon was first observed in 1933 by German physicists Meissner and Oxenfeld

In 10-20 years, superconductivity will be widely used in energy,

industry, transport and much wider in medicine and electronics.      In electronics, superconductivity will find wide application in computer technology. Potentially the most profitable industrial application of superconductivity is associated with the generation, transmission and efficient use of electricity.

Engineers have long thought about how it would be possible to

use huge magnetic fields created with the help of superconductors for the magnetic suspension of a train (magnetic levitation).

In the long term, joint projects for the construction

of cryotransport and railways are possible. The possibility of accelerating macroscopic objects by the electromagnetic field will also find application at aerodromes and cosmodromes, where the SP magnets will provide take-off / landing to aircraft and spacecraft.
