Synopsis
Superfluidity and Superconductivity, Third Edition introduces the low-temperature phenomena of superfluidity and superconductivity from a unified viewpoint. With problems at the end of most chapters as well as the careful elaboration of basic principles, the book stresses the existence of a macroscopic wave function as a central principle, presents an extensive discussion of macroscopic theories, and includes full descriptions of relevant experimental results throughout. This comprehensive, accessible edition also features an additional chapter on high-temperature superconductors.
