Towards room-temperature superconductivity
Jacob Szeftel, Nicolas Sandeau, Michel Abou Ghantous +1
By taking advantage of a stability criterion established recently, the critical temperature is reckoned with help of the microscopic parameters, characterising the normal and…
Thermal Stability of Superconductors
Jacob Szeftel, Nicolas Sandeau, Michel Abou Ghantous +1
A stability criterion is worked out for the superconducting phase. The validity of a prerequisite, established previously for persistent currents, is thereby confirmed. Temperature…
A Novel Treatment of the Josephson Effect
Jacob Szeftel, Nicolas Sandeau, Michel Abou Ghantous
A new picture of the Josephson effect is devised. The radio-frequency (RF) signal, observed in a Josephson junction, is shown to stem from bound electrons, tunneling periodically t…
Comment on "`Inconsistency of the conventional theory of superconductivity"' by Hirsch J.E
Jacob Szeftel, Nicolas Sandeau, Michel Abou Ghantous +1
A rebuttal of a recent article by Hirsch J.E. is presented below. To begin with, the main assumption, regarding the Meissner effect, which the whole argument relies upon, is dispro…
