But the impurities " also introduced additional disorder, which killed the superconducting phase,"
2.
The normal core plays a role of a hole in the superconducting phase.
3.
Superconductors exhibit a large positive " dR / dT " on the superconducting phase transition.
4.
For instance, in the ferromagnetic transition, the heat capacity diverges to infinity . The same phenomena is also seen in superconducting phase transition.
5.
In theoretical terms, a color superconducting phase is a state in which the quarks near the Fermi surface become correlated in Cooper pairs, which condense.
6.
In a mean field approximation, the RVB state can be written in terms of a Gutzwiller projection, and displays a superconducting phase transition per the Kosterlitz-Thouless mechanism.
7.
Gor'kov was the first to derive the superconducting phase evolution equation 2eV = \ hbar \ frac { \ partial \ phi } { \ partial t }.
8.
This is because the Gibbs free energy of the superconducting phase increases quadratically with the magnetic field while the free energy of the normal phase is roughly independent of the magnetic field.
9.
In phenomenological terms, a color superconducting phase breaks some of the symmetries of the underlying theory, and has a very different spectrum of excitations and very different transport properties from the normal phase.
10.
If the period of the Little Parks oscillations is 2? with respect to the superconducting phase variable, from the formula above it follows that the period with respect to the magnetic flux is the same as the magnetic flux quantum, namely
