This book provides the reader with a detailed theoretical treatment
of the key mechanisms of superconductivity, up to the current state
of the art (phonons, magnons, plasmons). In addition, the book
describes the properties of key superconducting compounds that are
of most interest for science and its applications today. For many
years there has been a search for new materials with higher values
of the main parameters, such as the critical temperature and the
critical current. At present, the possibility to observe
superconductivity at room temperature has become perfectly
realistic. The book is especially concerned with high Tc systems,
such as the high Tc oxides, hydrides with record values of the
critical temperature under high pressure, nanoclusters, etc. A
number of interesting novel superconducting systems have been
discovered recently. Among them: topological materials, interface
systems, intercalated graphene. The book contains rigorous
derivations, based on statistical mechanics and many-body theory.
The book is also providing qualitative explanations of the main
concepts and results, which makes it accessible and interesting for
a broader readership.
