Superconducting Theory Improvement

University of Houston physicists report finding major theoretical flaws in the generally accepted understanding of how a superconductor traps and holds a magnetic field. More than 50 years ago, C.P. Bean, a scientist at General Electric, developed a theoretical explanation known as the "Bean Model" or "Critical State Model."

 

"By using our newly discovered methods, the maximum TFM (trapped field magnet) field is now 12 tesla," said Weinstein. "A motor, if made in a fixed size, can produce 3.2 times the torque.

Sounds like all kinds of supercomputer magnets can be made 3.2 times stronger for the same size. Does it include the LHC?
