Abstract
A system is specified having at least one superconducting cable (SK) which has at least one superconducting conductor (2), and having a cryostat (KR) which surrounds the same and has two metallic tubes, an inner tube (6) and an outer tube (7), which are arranged concentrically at a distance from one another, are corrugated transversely with respect to their longitudinal direction and between which vacuum insulation (8) is arranged. The cable (SK) has a central tubular support (1) for passing a coolant through, on which the superconducting conductor (2) rests. The cable (SK) is surrounded all around by a buffer layer (5) which protects the same against mechanical damage and consists of insulating material, and the inner tube (6) of the cryostat (KR) at least rests in a sealed manner on the buffer layer (5).
