This book proposes a thorough introduction for a varied audience.
The reader will master London theory and the Pippard equations, and
go on to understand type I and type II superconductors (their
thermodynamics, magnetic properties, vortex dynamics, current
transport...), Cooper pairs and the results of BCS theory. By
studying coherence and flux quantization he or she will be lead to
the Josephson effect which, with the SQUID, is a good example of
the applications. The reader can make up for any gaps in his
knowledge with the use of the appendices, follow the logic behind
each model, and assimilate completely the underlying concepts.
Approximately 250 illustrations help in developing a thorough
understanding. This volume is aimed towards masters and doctoral
students, as well as advanced undergraduates, teachers and
researchers at all levels coming from a broad range of subjects
(chemistry, physics, mechanical and electrical engineering,
materials science...). Engineers working in industry will have a
useful introduction to other more applied or specialized material.
Philippe Mangin is emeritus professor of physics at Mines Nancy
Graduate School of Science, Engineering and Management of the
University of Lorraine, and researcher at the Jean Lamour Institute
in France. He is the former director of both the French neutron
scattering facility, Leon Brillouin Laboratory in Orsay, and the
Material Physics Laboratory in Nancy, and has taught
superconductivity to a broad audience, in particular to engineering
students. Remi Kahn is a retired senior research scientist of the
French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission
(CEA-Saclay). He worked at the Leon Brillouin Laboratory and was in
charge of the experimental areas of INB 101 (the Orphee research
reactor). This work responded to the need to bring an accessible
account suitable for a wide spectrum of scientists and engineers.
