Summary

This paper presents experimental results on magnetic field optimisation of YBCO bulk superconducting undulators intended for synchrotron and free-electron laser applications. The authors propose a sorting algorithm to reduce phase error based on trapped current reconstruction in a staggered array prototype, and evaluate performance through detailed magnetic field mapping. The work is not applicable to Vitagri's research scope on farming systems, soil health, nutrient density, or human health.

UK applicability

Not applicable. This is fundamental physics research on superconductor engineering with no direct relevance to agricultural practice, soil science, nutrition, or food systems in the United Kingdom or elsewhere.

Key measures

Phase error reduction; trapped current reconstruction; 2D magnetic field maps; performance of YBCO prototype at 10 K and 10 T

Outcomes reported

The study does not measure agricultural, nutritional, or food system outcomes. This is a physics paper on superconductor magnetic field optimisation.
