Deaver, B; Ruvalds, J

This book presents lectures and papers (separately indexed) from the Advanced Study Institute on ''Advances in Superconductivity'' held in Sicily in 1982. It focuses on highlights of technological applications, together with fundamental advances in the discovery and understanding of new superconducting materials. It covers the history of the theory of superconductivity; fundamental limits on Squid technology; Josephson computer technology; organic superconductivity; solitons in long Josephson junctions; Josephson effects; investigations on the Josephson effect by photosensitive tunnel structures; the problem of geometrical configuration in Josephson junctions; a workshop on organic materials and superconducting fluctuations; superconducting tunnel junctions in high frequency radiation detectors; coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism; ion implantation; the empirical approach to superconductivity; and Kosterlitz-Thouless Transitions and two-dimensional superconductors.
