Stability of Superconductors [Paperback]

In this definitive text in the field, the author gives a detailed account of the major problem of applied superconductivitiy-the stability of superconductors. His work focuses on the application of superconductiors to the construction of magnets. Students and engineers will discover the underlying principles of applied superconductivity and will learn how to solve mathematical problems with advanced methods of calculation.In this definitive text in the field, the author gives a detailed account of the major problem of applied superconductivitiy-the stability of superconductors.
