Abstract:
A connection structure for connecting first and second superconducting conductors, wherein:portions of first and second superconducting conductors to be connected are divided respectively into at least first and second tape-shaped superconducting wires, each of said at least first and second superconducting wires of said first and second superconducting conductors includes a filament assembly containing superconducting filaments, said first superconducting wire of said first superconducting conductor is aligned widthwise with said first superconducting wire of said second superconducting conductor and joined therewith to form a first joined body such that broad surfaces of the first wire of the first superconducting conductor and of the first wire of the second superconducting conductor are opposed to each other, said second superconducting wire of said first superconducting conductor is aligned widthwise with said second superconducting wire of said second superconducting conductor and joined therewith to form a second joined body such that broad surfaces of the second wire of the first superconducting conductor and of the second wire of the second superconducting conductor are opposed to each other, the broad surfaces of each of the at least first and second superconducting wires of the first and second joined bodies are aligned widthwise, and the first and second joined bodies are joined by a solder layer.
