Description: The field of superconductivity is of tremendous potential for growth and further development in industrial applications. The subject continues to occupy physicists, chemists, and engineers interested in both the phenomena itself and possible financially-viable industrial devices utilizing the physical concepts. The present volume is the first handbook to address this field. It covers both "classic" superconductivity-related topics and the high Tc. Numerous properties, including thermal, electrical, magnetic, mechanical, phase diagrams, and spectroscopic crystallographic structures are presented for many superconductor types. Critical fields, critical currents, coherence lengths, penetration depths, and transition temperatures are tabulated.
