Abstract

The invention concerns a method of making a superconductor so that it includes, in cross-section: a central area, made up of a plurality of superconductor filaments of the NbTi, NbTiTa type or of any other alloy or substance based on Nb; a concentric, two part, outer ring surrounding the central area; and a concentric resistive barrier. In accordance with the invention, the concentric resistive barrier is integrated into the concentric outer ring.
