The basics
Type II superconductor
A superconductor that admits a strong magnetic field as threads of flux instead of failing outright. Every practical conductor is Type II, since a magnet must survive its own field.
Why type ii superconductor matters
A magnet has to survive the field it makes, so every conductor wound into one is Type II.
