Broadcast in 2019 A new vehicle using superconducting technology called the "Linear Chuo Shinkansen" is about to begin running in 2027. What is the technical feature of this Linear Chuo Shinkansen? It is not levitated using ordinary electromagnets, but using extremely powerful superconducting magnets. The Superconducting Linear was made possible by overcoming challenges with advanced technology, such as measures to deal with air resistance due to the ultra-high speed, a high-precision propulsion system, and the development of materials and cooling mechanisms for superconducting magnets. In addition, the obstacles that have been overcome, such as solving noise problems and ensuring the safety of magnetic fields, have been more difficult than any other transportation system to date. We take a closer look at the technology behind the Superconducting Linear, which has achieved the world's fastest speed.
