normal-superconducting transition time
1Superconducting magnet — A superconducting magnet is an electromagnet made from coils of superconducting wire. They must be cooled to cryogenic temperatures during operation. In its superconducting state the wire can conduct much larger electric currents than ordinary… …
2Superconducting Radio Frequency — (SRF) science and technology involves the application of electrical superconductors to radio frequency devices. The ultra low electrical loss of the superconductor yields RF resonators with extremely high quality factors, or Q . For example, it… …
3Superconductor Insulator Transition — The Superconductor Insulator Transition is an example of a quantum phase transition, where upon tuning some parameter in the Hamiltonian, a dramatic change in the behavior of the electrons occurs. The nature of how this transition occurs is… …

5Mathematics and Physical Sciences — ▪ 2003 Introduction Mathematics Mathematics in 2002 was marked by two discoveries in number theory. The first may have practical implications; the second satisfied a 150 year old curiosity. Computer scientist Manindra Agrawal of the… …
6Meissner effect — Diagram of the Meissner effect. Magnetic field lines, represented as arrows, are excluded from a superconductor when it is below its critical temperature. The Meissner effect is the expulsion of a magnetic field from a superconductor during its… …
7Ginzburg–Landau theory — In physics, Ginzburg–Landau theory is a mathematical theory used to model superconductivity. It does not purport to explain the microscopic mechanisms giving rise to superconductivity. Instead, it examines the macroscopic properties of a… …
8physics — /fiz iks/, n. (used with a sing. v.) the science that deals with matter, energy, motion, and force. [1580 90; see PHYSIC, ICS] * * * I Science that deals with the structure of matter and the interactions between the fundamental constituents of… …
9Fullerene — Buckminsterfullerene C60 (left) and carbon nanotubes (right) are two examples of structures in the fullerene family …
10Aluminium — Infobox aluminiumAluminium (Audio IPA|En uk aluminium1.ogg|ˌæljʊˈmɪniəm, IPA|/ˌæljəˈmɪniəm/) or aluminum (Audio IPA|En uk aluminum.ogg|/əˈluːmɪnəm/, see spelling below) is a silvery white and ductile member of the boron group of chemical elements …
