Kronos Fusion Energy has published the REBCO conductor basis underpinning both of its machines, with the dataset archived under DOI 10.5281/zenodo.22645697.
The high-field magnet basis specifies a 16.84 T centrepost field and a 26.49 T plug field, built on a single REBCO tape conductor design.

Using one conductor basis across the breeder and the burner is a deliberate engineering choice: qualification, procurement, and winding experience compound across both programs instead of being duplicated.
Rare-earth barium copper oxide tapes remain the enabling technology for compact high-field fusion magnets, sustaining superconductivity at field strengths beyond the reach of conventional low-temperature superconductors.
The published basis joins Kronos's frozen breeder design point (Q = 3.076) and its D–3He tandem-mirror burner reference case, both also released with public datasets.
