Superconductivity
A New Approach Based on the BetheSalpeter Equation in the Mean-Field Approximation
Language: English
Release Date: February 29, 2016
Given the Debye temperature of an elemental superconductor (SC) and its Tc, BCS theory enables one to predict the value of its gap Δ0 at T = 0, or vice versa. This monograph shows that non-elemental SCs can be similarly dealt with via the generalized BCS equations (GBCSEs) which, given any two parameters...
