INTRODUCTION TO SUPERCONDUCTIVITY AND HIGH-Tc MATERIALS
edited by Michel Cyrot (Université J Fourier & CNRS, Grenoble) & Davor Pavuna (Ecole Polytechnique Federal de Lausanne, Lausanne)
What sets this book apart from others on the introduction to super-conductivity and high-Tc materials is its simple and pragmatic approach. The authors describe all relevant superconducting phenomena and rely on the macroscopic Ginzburg-Landau theory to derive the most important results. Examples are chosen from selected conventional superconductors like NbTi and compared to those of high-Tc materials. The text should be of interest to students and researchers in all branches of science and engineering, with the possible exception of theoretical physicists, who may require a more mathematical approach.
