E-Books →Superconducting Materials and Their Applications An interdisciplinary approach

superconducting materials have the potential to change our world, but descriptions
of superconductivity in literature tend to be complex for non-physicists. This
text provides an accessible account of superconductivity and its applications
for an interdisciplinary readership.
This book covers the characteristics
of superconducting materials, particularly those with commercial applications,
including MRI, MEG, high-field magnets, magnetometers, gradiometers, SQUID sensors
and Josephson junctions. The applications and concepts are discussed at a level
suitable for those with a basic background in physics, without using complex
mathematics.
This is a valuable reference text for researchers and practitioners working
with devices made from superconducting materials. The text also acts as useful supplementary
reading for courses related to superconductivity and superconducting materials.
