Superconductivity is a phenomenon occurring in certain materials
generally at very low temperatures, characterised by exactly zero
electrical resistance and the exclusion of the interior magnetic
field. Like ferromagnetism and atomic spectral lines,
superconductivity is a quantum mechanical phenomenon. It cannot be
understood simply as the idealisation of "perfect conductivity" in
classical physics. Furthermore, superconductivity occurs in a wide
variety of materials, including simple elements like tin and
aluminium, various metallic alloys and some heavily-doped
semiconductors. It does not occur in noble metals like gold and
silver, nor in pure samples of ferromagnetic metals. This book
gathers the latest research from around the globe in this dynamic
field and highlights topics such as super-conducting
miniundulators, super-conducting transitions in wire networks, the
orbital physics of superconductors, the super-conducting circuits
of Josephson junctions, and the types of stresses that affect
super-conducting properties and behaviour.
