C, Superconductivity}, month = {Dec}, note = {This paper presents results of a quench/recovery experiment for a BSCCO-2223/Ag composite tape in the presence or absence of a thin layer of solid nitrogen on each side of the tape. Voltage and temperature data were recorded for a 20-cm long BSCCO-2223/Ag tape operating in the range 20-55 K and subjected to a heat pulse of a 10-600 s duration applied over a short distance at its midpoint. The data clearly show that solid nitrogen is beneficial to the stability of high-temperature superconductors (HTS) operating in this temperature range and subjected to transient heating disturbances.}, pages = {1443--1446}, title = {Beneficial effect of solid nitrogen on a BSCCO-2223/Ag composite tape subjected to local heating}, volume = {372-376}, year = {2002} }
