Which outcome results from exceeding quench current in superconductors?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding quench current causes an abrupt loss of superconductivity because the **Meissner effect** collapses releasing trapped magnetic flux, creating resistive heating. Therefore, superconductivity is lost, rather than stabilized, causing local thermal rise instead being improved.
