Ebook: Recent Developments in High Temperature Superconductivity: Proceedings of the 1st Polish-US Conference Held at Wrocław and Duszniki Zdrój, Poland, 11–15 September 1995

This book contains rewiev articles presenting the current status of high-temperature superconductivity research. The articles cover synthesis issues, materials properties and most fundamental theoretical problems. Applications of high- temperature superconductors are also reflected in several contributions.
The book addresses researchers working in fundamental research in solid-state physics as well as engineers developing new materials for industrial applications.
