Description: Superconductors for a more powerful LHC #HiLumiLHC 🧲💪 The future high-energy accelerators will need magnetic fields never reached before, as high as 20 Tesla and above. To achieve this level of performance, a new technological leap is being prepared at #CERN with high temperature superconductors. Watch here to find out about our recently developed cabling machine for making superconducting cables that will be used for the electrical transmission system, the so-called superconducting link. It will be used for the LHC for powering the high luminosity #magnets. Learn more about #superconductivity: home.cern/science/engineering/superconductivity
