商品描述

Superconductivity is a remarkable, on the verge of miraculous, macroscopic quantum phenomenon with a boundless potential for a wide variety of applications. Over the last century the physics of superconductivity constitutes a major part of research in condensed matter and yet the electrodynamics of superconductors appears as only a minor part in textbooks on electrodynamics and superconductivity.

The book offers a fresh look at electrodynamics of continuous media with detailed description of thermal and electromagnetic properties of superconductors, emphasising physical meaning of concepts and principles without excessive mathematics. To facilitate understanding, it is accompanied by problems and worked solutions.

The book will be of interest to senior undergraduate and graduate students of physics and chemistry who have taken a calculus-based course in general physics. It is a valuable reference for researchers involved in studies of superconductivity, the physics of metals, and condensed matter physics.

Key Features:

- The first book - in terms of semi-classical physics - addressing both equilibrium and nonequilibrium, thermal and transport properties of superconducting materials.

- Presents an accessible overview without excessive mathematics.

Accompanied by problems with solutions to aid understanding.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

超導性是一種顯著的、近乎奇蹟的宏觀量子現象,具有無限的潛力可應用於各種領域。在過去的百年中,超導性的物理學構成了凝聚態研究的主要部分,然而超導體的電動力學在電動力學和超導性教科書中似乎僅佔一小部分。

本書提供了對連續介質電動力學的新視角,詳細描述了超導體的熱性和電磁性質,強調概念和原則的物理意義,而不過度依賴數學。為了促進理解,書中附有問題及其解答。

本書將吸引已修習基於微積分的一般物理課程的物理和化學高年級本科生及研究生。對於從事超導性、金屬物理和凝聚態物理研究的研究人員來說,這是一本有價值的參考書。

主要特點:
- 這是第一本從半經典物理的角度探討超導材料的平衡與非平衡、熱性和傳輸性質的書籍。
- 提供了一個可接近的概述,沒有過多的數學。
- 附有問題及其解答以幫助理解。

作者簡介

Vladimir F. Kozhevnikov is a retired professor of Tulsa Community College, USA; over the last two decades he was also a vising researcher at the KU Leuven, Belgium. He received his PhD from the Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI) and D. Sc. (habilitation) in physics and mathematics from the Kurchatov Institute of Atomic Energy (KIAE), Russia. Before moving to the US in 1996 he was physics professor at MAI and a senior researcher at the KIAE. His researches at that time were mostly focused at the liquid-gas criticality, metal-dielectric transition and wetting in fluid metals. He was the recipient of the 'Kurchatov Prize' in 1996. His current research interests primarily include superconductivity, phase transitions, and thermodynamics in magnetic fields. Dr. Kozhevnikov has published a book on thermodynamics of magnetized materials and superconductors and over 70 papers in refereed journals.

弗拉基米爾·F·科熱夫尼科夫是美國塔爾薩社區學院的退休教授;在過去的二十年中,他還曾擔任比利時KU Leuven的訪問研究員。他在莫斯科航空學院(MAI)獲得博士學位,並在俄羅斯庫爾恰托夫原子能研究所(KIAE)獲得物理和數學的科學博士(habilitation)學位。在1996年移居美國之前,他是MAI的物理學教授和KIAE的高級研究員。他當時的研究主要集中在液體-氣體臨界性、金屬-介電體轉變以及流體金屬的濕潤性。他於1996年獲得「庫爾恰托夫獎」。他目前的研究興趣主要包括超導性、相變化以及在磁場中的熱力學。科熱夫尼科夫博士已出版一本關於磁化材料和超導體的熱力學書籍,以及在同行評審期刊上發表了70多篇論文。
