Physics of trapped magnetic fluxes in SC cavities Vitaliy February, 2016
Superconductivity Abrupt jump of DC resistance to zero at T < Tc Meissner effect Isotope effect Second-order phase transition and supercurrent Penetration depth Coherence length Cooper pairs Ginzburg-Landau model 2 Vitaliy Goryashko
Meissner Effect: superconductors type-I Beyond critical field: the intermediate state 3 Vitaliy Goryashko
London penetration depth For normal conductors ? = ?? For superconductors ? 2 ? ? = 4??? Using the Maxwell equation ???? ? =4? ? ? 2, ?2? = ?/?? we obtain whose solution is ? ? = ?0? ?/?? ??2/4???2 ??= and the penetration depth reads For niobium it is around 500 . 4 Vitaliy Goryashko
Critical Field The energy required to push an external field out of the sample is =?0 2 8? at zero temperature. 5 Vitaliy Goryashko
