Macroscopic Superconducting Phenomena (eBook, ePUB)

An interactive guide

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A number of macroscopic manifestations of superconducting phenomena (such as zero electrical resistance, the expulsion of magnetic fields and the Josephson effect) have resulted in a proliferation of applications in engineering and electronics. These include the development of magnetic resonance instruments, magnetic levitation trains, particle accelerators, ultrasensitive magnetic field detection, high precision metrology and supercomputing.

This book takes a practical, pedagogical approach to understanding the electromagnetic properties of superconducting materials. The reader is provided with a set of ready-to-use interactive tools to engage with topics such as vanishing resistivity, magnetic flux expulsion, flux pinning, critical currents, flux quantization and more. By including a compilation of computer programs that simulate well-known experimental situations, the book provides a novel toolkit that facilitates an interactive, open-source approach, empowering the reader to take themselves beyond the scope of classical analytic methods and to handle macroscopic superconducting phenomena with confidence.

Aimed at high level undergraduate and graduate physicists and engineers, this book is ideal for early researchers studying macroscopic superconductivity. As accessible as it is rigorous, Macroscopic Superconducting Phenomena: An interactive guide provides an excellent reference in a complex and rapidly developing field.
