The ultimate goal in high-temperature superconductivity is to produce superconducting materials in a form that can be fabricated into end products. To achieve this goal requires expertise across a wide spectrum of subjects from physics, chemistry, materials, production engineering, and electronic and electrical engineering to entrepreneurial and business skills. The 9th International Symposium on Superconductivity, continuing the series of annual meetings, brought together researchers in the forefront of these fields, providing a forum for the discussion of the very latest findings. The long-awaited goal of superefficient power applications came one step closer to realization with reports on several new technologies for fabricating rare-earth 123 tapes and wires. With basic and applied research progressing rapidly, these volumes will be indispensable to all researchers in the field of high-temperature superconductivity.
