An Experimental and Theoretical Study of the Relation Between Magnetic Field and Current in a Superconductor in Proceedings of the Royal Society 216, 1953, pp. 547-568
Published by Royal Society, London, 1953
First Edition
1st Edition. BOUND FIRST EDITION OF PIPPARD'S DISCOVERY OF THE COHERENCE LENGTH. "Loosely speaking, the coherence length can be viewed as the spatial distance over which the superconducting state (i.e., electron-electron pairing length scale) can exist" (Ray, Superconductors, 35). The significance of this is that, according to the theory, only electrons with a particular energy level contribute to superconductivity. This was a key breakthrough leading to the BCS theory of superconductivity. Professor Sir Brian Pippard was Cavendish Professor of Physics at the University of Cambridge for the majority of his career. While at Cambridge and based upon his thesis work on the anomalous skin depth in dirty superconductors, Pippard proposed "that the character of superconductivity changes at short distances, below a scale he named the coherence length. Pippard showed that, at these short distances, the local London relation between current and vector potential is replaced by a non-local relationship. Pippard's result means that Ginzburg-Landau theory is inadequate at distances shorter than the coherence length, demanding a microscopic theory" (Coleman, Introduction to Many-Body Physics, 489). In 1948, Fritz London, in a paper entitled "On the Problem of the Molecular Theory of Superconductivity" (and which we offer separately and in wraps) proposed what would become known as the â??London Moment': his prediction that a spinning superconductor would develop a magnetic dipole which was exactly aligned with the instantaneous spin axis and whose magnitude is proportional to the spin speed. Put another way, "the phenomenological London equations may be consequences of the coherence of a quantum state" (Wikipedia). The paper we offer suggests that Pippard's experiments threw "doubt on the phenomenological theory of F. and H. London"; a new equation for the supercurrent is proposed (Pippard, 1953, p. 547). Leading directly to the BCS theory in 1957, Pippard's 1953 paper shows that "superconducting electrons behave in a rigid way over a length of about a micrometer [the coherence length]. The behavior is rigid in the sense that, if you give the electrons a push at one point, (by applying an external force, say an electric field), they all move in the same direction and at the same speed up to a distance of about a micrometer from where you apply a force" (Saxena, High-Temperature Superconductors, 200). CONDITION & DETAILS: London: The Royal Society. Complete volume. 4to. 9.75 by 7 inches (213 x 138mm). [4], xv, [586], 4. The volume is illustrated throughout with in-text figures. Small, light ex-libris stamp on the title page. Handsomely rebound; gilt lettered at the spine. The marbled paper boards were purposefully scuffed by the binder in order that the book, though rebound, appears somewhat aged. Solidly and very tightly bound. Bright and clean throughout. Fine condition.

Cavendish Problems in Classical Physics (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1971
ISBN 10: 0521083095 ISBN 13: 9780521083096
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. First published in 1962, many of the problems in this book started as examination questions in Part I of the Natural Sciences Tripos, which is taken at the end of the second year at Cambridge. They have suffered some changes since then, and have been supplemented by specially invented problems, but the general level is the same. The university teacher, however, should not imagine that our purpose in publishing this collection is to provide him with a ready store of examination questions. We are much more concerned to help the serious student to understand physics, and it is his needs that we have tried to bear in mind throughout. First published in 1962, many of the problems in this book started as examination questions in Part I of the Natural Sciences Tripos, which is taken at the end of the second year at Cambridge.

Magnetoresistance in Metals (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2009
ISBN 10: 0521118808 ISBN 13: 9780521118804
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. First published in 1989, this book contained the first systematic account of magnetoresistance in metals, the study of which has provided solid-state physicists with much valuable information about electron motion in metals. The electrical resistance of a metal is usually changed when a magnetic field is applied to it; at low temperatures the change may be very large indeed and when magnetic breakdown is involved, very complex. Every metal behaves differently, and the effect is highly dependent on the direction of the field relative to the crystal axes. Quite apart from its usefulness for determining the Ferni surfaces of individual metals, the phenomenon presents many interesting problems in its own right; it is the phenomenon, rather than its applications, that Professor Pippard concentrates on in this book. The level of treatment is aimed at readers with a basic knowledge of undergraduate solid-state physics, and makes no great demand on mathematical ability. The text is copiously illustrated with real experimental results.
