Institute of Superconductivity

The Laboratory for Magnetic Measurements at Bar-Ilan University, headed by Prof. Yosef Yeshurun, is today part of the Institute of Superconductivity. Most of the activity at this laboratory is dedicated to experimental studies of magnetic properties of high-temperature superconductors, in particular to flux properties. Application-oriented studies in the laboratory focus on high-current applications such as superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) and Fault Current Limiter (FCL).
