Details
Affiliation:
M.I.T. Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory
Award Recipient
For significant and sustained contribution in the field of large scale applications of superconductivity, in particular,
for his pioneering work in developing techniques for making superconducting joints between NbTi and Nb3Sn wires, and most recently MgB2 wires;
for formulating the basic design principles to enable high-performance ("adiabatic") LTS magnets used for NMR and MRI to operate nearly quench free;
for applying HTS into NMR and MRI magnets.
for educating students and postdocs, and hosting many visiting international scholars to the MIT Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory and,
for authoring the informative textbooks, "Case Studies in Superconducting Magnets," 1st Edition (1994) and 2nd Edition (2009).
