SUPERCONDUCTING LEVITATED HIGH SPEED GROUND TRANSPORTATION PROJECT IN JAPAN

An outline of the magnetic levitation project in Japan is given. Research has been concentrated on levitation system utilizing electromagnetic repulsive force between a normal metal track and on-board superconducting magnets. Development of levitation magnets together with other items basic for a levitation system is given.
