Revisiting low-frequency susceptibility data in superconducting materials

Superconductivity 2018-12-27 v2

Abstract

Old susceptibility data, measured in superconducting materials at low-frequency, are shown to be accounted for consistently within the framework of a recently published\cite{sz1} analysis of the skin effect. Their main merit is to emphasize the significance of the skin-depth measurements, performed \textit{just beneath} the critical temperature TcT_c, in order to disprove an assumption, which thwarted any understanding of the skin-depth data, achieved so far by conventional high-frequency methods, so that those data might, from now on, give access to the temperature dependence of the concentration of superconducting electrons.
