Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the science and technology of superconductors, investigating materials, properties, and applications. Research includes enhancing critical current density in MgB2 bulks, developing sensor-free quench detection methods for REBCO magnets, and analyzing AC losses in high-temperature superconducting coils. It also covers analytical models for superconducting magnetic sensors, the impact of irradiation on superconducting magnets, and ultrafast processing of superconducting materials. Further topics include pressure effects on vortex dynamics, rare-earth ionic size effects on vortex pinning, and mechanical behavior of stacked superconducting tapes.
