Experimental work was carried out on the fabrication of a stabilized Nb/sub 3/Sn wire by consumable electrode arc casting. Small ingots of Cu-Nb alloy were produced by controlling the heat flow of the graphite crucible. However, this technique seems to include the problem of carbon contamination; further investigation should focus on using an improved method of lining the graphite crucible or on using other suitable materials. From the results of a number of magnetization measurement tests, Nb/sub 3/Sn filaments in the resulting in situ composites were found to be strongly coupled electromagnetically. Twisting of the wire significantly reduced magnetization loss in a transverse field. In a parallel field, twisting also influenced the magnitude of the magnetization, but unusual magnetic behavior was observed.
