Book Synopsis Quantum Statistical Theory of Superconductivity by : S. Fujita
Download or read book Quantum Statistical Theory of Superconductivity written by S. Fujita. This book was released on 2006-01-27. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this text, Shigeji Fujita and Salvador Godoy guide first and second-year graduate students through the essential aspects of superconductivity. The authors open with five preparatory chapters thoroughly reviewing a number of advanced physical concepts-such as free-electron model of a metal, theory of lattice vibrations, and Bloch electrons. The remaining chapters deal with the theory of superconductivity-describing the basic properties of type I, type II compound, and high-Tc superconductors as well as treating quasi-particles using Heisenberg's equation of motion. The book includes step-by-step derivations of mathematical formulas, sample problems, and illustrations.
