Question

P. W. Anderson showed that this property is robust against imperfections in “dirty” materials displaying this property. Electrons in materials displaying this property pull positive charge carriers towards them, resulting in a small (-5[1])attractive force on other electrons. Within these materials, the magnetic (15[1])field obeys a Helmholtz equation with eigenvalue equal to one over the square (-5[1])of the (*) London penetration depth. (10[1])1.764 (10[1])times the Boltzmann constant times the critical temperature for this phenomenon gives (10[1])the energy gained by forming a Cooper pair in (10[1])the BCS theory (10[1])of (10[1])this (10[1])phenomenon. (10[2])For 10 points, name this low temperature phenomenon in which a material’s DC electrical resistance drops to zero. ■END■ (10[1]0[1])
