Sommario/riassunto

Superconductivity is a quantum phenomenon that manifests itself in materials showing zero electrical resistance below a characteristic temperature resulting in the potential for an electric current to run continually through such a material without the need for a power source. Such materials are used extensively in medical and power applications, e.g. MRI and NMR machines.   Discovering Superconductivity uses a series of practical and investigative activities, which can be used as tutor demonst
