By Vladimir Z. Kresin,Hans Morawitz,Stuart A. Wolf

'Superconducting country' presents a truly designated theoretical remedy of the major mechanisms of superconductivity, together with the present state-of-the-art (phonons, magnons, and plasmons). a truly entire description is given of the electron-phonon mechanism chargeable for superconductivity within the majority of superconducting structures, and the historical past of its improvement, in addition to an in depth description of the foremost experimental thoughts used to review the
superconducting kingdom and confirm the mechanisms. additionally, there are chapters describing the invention and homes of the most important superconducting compounds which are of the main curiosity for technology, and functions together with a different bankruptcy at the cuprate superconductors. It offers distinctive treatments
of a few very novel features of superconductivity, together with a number of bands (gaps), the "pseudogap" nation, novel isotope results past BCS, and prompted superconductivity.

Oscillations and Waves: An Introduction

Bridging lower-division physics survey classes with upper-division physics classes, Oscillations and Waves: An creation develops a unified mathematical thought of oscillations and waves in actual structures. Emphasizing physics over arithmetic, the writer comprises many examples from discrete mechanical, optical, and quantum mechanical platforms; non-stop gases, fluids, and elastic solids; digital circuits; and electromagnetic waves.

100 Years of Superconductivity

Even 100 years after its discovery, superconductivity keeps to convey us new surprises, from superconducting magnets utilized in MRI to quantum detectors in electronics. a hundred Years of Superconductivity offers a entire choice of issues on approximately all of the subdisciplines of superconductivity.

Research, Fabrication and Applications of Bi-2223 HTS Wires: 1 (World Scientific Series in Applications of Superconductivity and Related Phenomena)

The aim of this e-book is to hide all facets of Bi-2223 superconducting wires from basic learn, fabrication procedure to purposes. This e-book includes many chapters written through unique specialists within the world.

The Mathematical Theory of Symmetry in Solids: Representation Theory for Point Groups and Space Groups (Oxford Classic Texts in the Physical Sciences)

This e-book offers the whole thought of the irreducible representations of the crystallographic element teams and area teams. this is often very important within the quantum-mechanical learn of a particle or quasi-particle in a molecule or crystalline stable as the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a approach belong to the irreducible representations of the crowd of symmetry operations of that method.
