Which risk increases when operating superconducting magnets beyond critical current?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding critical current causes a breakdown of Cooper pairs. This sudden loss of superposition, causes a phase transition resulting in runaway Joule heating referred to as 'quenching' because of the Meissner effect failure, rather than increased heat resistivity or stability against vibrations.
