Superconductors & Superconductivity

  • Fundamental Elements of Applied Superconductivity in Electrical Engineeringby Yinshun Wang

    Wiley 2013; US$ 130.50

    Superconducting technology is potentially important as one of the future smart grid technologies. It is a combination of superconductor materials, electrical engineering, cryogenic insulation, cryogenics and cryostats. There has been no specific book fully describing this branch of science and technology in electrical engineering. However, this book... more...

  • One-Dimensional Superconductivity in Nanowiresby Fabio Altomare; Albert M. Chang

    Wiley 2013; US$ 145.00

    Devoted to the topic of superconductivity in very narrow metallic wires, the goal of this book is to produce a relatively self-contained introduction to the theoretical, experimental and phenomenological aspects of the 1-dimensional superconducting nanowire system. more...

  • Reviews of Accelerator Science and Technology - Volume 5by Alexander W. Chao; Weiren Chou

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2013; US$ 192.00

    Over the past several decades major advances in accelerators have resulted from breakthroughs in accelerator science and accelerator technology. After the introduction of a new accelerator physics concept or the implementation of a new technology, a leap in accelerator performance followed. A well-known representation of these advances is the Livingston... more...

  • A Modern Course in the Quantum Theory of Solidsby Fuxiang Han

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2012; US$ 114.00

    This book contains advanced subjects in solid state physics with emphasis on the theoretical exposition of various physical phenomena in solids using quantum theory, hence entitled “A modern course in the quantum theory of solids”. The use of the adjective “modern” in the title is to reflect the fact that some of the new developments... more...

  • Discovering Superconductivityby Gren Ireson

    Wiley 2012; US$ 120.00

    Superconductivity is a quantum phenomenon that manifests itself in materials showing zero electrical resistance below a characteristic temperature resulting in the potential for an electric current to run continually through such a material without the need for a power source. Such materials are used extensively in medical and power applications,... more...

  • Applications of High Temperature Superconductors to Electric Power Equipmentby Swarn S. Kalsi

    Wiley 2011; US$ 110.00

    The only one-stop reference to design, analysis, and manufacturing concepts for power devices utilizing HTS . High temperature superconductors (HTS) have been used for building many devices for electric grids worldwide and for large ship propulsion motors for the U.S. Navy. And yet, there has been no single source discussing theory and design issues... more...

  • Electron-Phonon Interaction in Conventional and Unconventional Superconductorsby Pegor Aynajian

    Springer 2011; US$ 109.99

    The problem of conventional, low-temperature superconductivity has been regarded as solved since the seminal work of Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer (BCS) more than 50 years ago. However, the theory does not allow accurate predictions of some of the most fundamental properties of a superconductor, including the superconducting energy gap on the Fermi... more...

  • Superconductivity in New Materialsby Zachary Fisk; Hans-Rudolf Ott

    Elsevier Science 2010; US$ 210.00

    The discoveries of new superconducting materials, most of them during the last 30 years, have served very much as the context for further developments in theory which continue to the present. In many of these cases, the observations of superconductivity in new materials were completely unexpected and therefore may be regarded as real discoveries. Even... more...

  • Thermodynamics of Crystalline Statesby Minoru Fujimoto

    Springer 2010; US$ 99.99

    Thermodynamics is an established discipline of physics for properties of matter in thermal equilibrium surroundings. Applying to crystals, however, the laws encounter undefined properties of crystal lattices, which therefore need to be determined for a legitimate description of crystalline states. Intended for readers with prior knowledge of condensed... more...

  • High-Temperature Cuprate Superconductorsby Nikolay Plakida

    Springer 2010; US$ 159.99

    "High-Temperature Cuprate Superconductors" provides an up-to-date and comprehensive review of the properties of these fascinating materials. The essential properties of high-temperature cuprate superconductors are reviewed on the background of their theoretical interpretation. The experimental results for structural, magnetic, thermal, electric,... more...
