Claim Text:
1. A superconducting wire comprising: an enclosing tube; at least three Al blocks disposed peripherally distributed in said enclosing tube; and at least three sections containing NbTi, said at least three sections also being disposed peripherally distributed in said enclosing tube, wherein said at least three sections thereby separate said Al blocks from one another in a peripheral direction, said Al blocks each making large-surface contact with adjacent said sections containing NbTi, wherein flat contact is obtained between said sections containing NbTi and said Al blocks, said flat contact extending, in cross section, through at least 20% of a diameter of the wire at bordering surfaces between said sections containing NbTi and said Al blocks, said bordering surfaces extending in an approximately radial direction, wherein the superconducting wire contains no solder.
