Performance of a small V3-Ga tape coil in high magnetic fields between 4.2K and 1.9K at atmospheric pressure

The critical current in short samples of different lots of commercial V3-Ga tapes has been measured in magnetic fields between 16 and 20 Tesla at 4.2K and 1.9K;a coil using 200 meters of tape has been built and tested in the magnetic field of a resistive coil generating commonly 13.0 Tesla. The results at 4.2K and 1.9K in superfluid liquid helium under one atmosphere are presented.
