In relatively pure normal samples contacting a superconductor we consider the excess resistance effect (that is a decrease of the total electrical resistance of the sample after transition of the superconducting part into the normal state)…
Magnetism is very important in science and technology, from magnetic recording to energy generation to trapping cold atoms. Physicists have managed to master magnetism - to create and manipulate magnetic fields- almost at will.…

Attempts to explain correlated-electron superconductivity have largely focused on the proximity of the superconducting state to antiferromagnetism. Yet, there exist many correlated-electron systems that exhibit insulator-superconducting…
In this paper we review several aspects of mesoscopic hybrid superconducting systems. In particular we consider charge and heat transport properties in hybrid superconducting-metal structures and the effect of charging energy in…
At low temperatures, the transport through a superconducting-normal tunnel interface is due to tunneling of electrons in pairs. The probability for this process is shown to depend on the layout of the electrodes near the tunnel junction,…

A personal recollection of events that preceded the construction of Supergravity and of some subsequent developments.
This is a review article on the development of the probe and enclosure methods from past to present, focused on their central ideas together with various applications.
This article will give an overview on the normal- and superconducting-state properties of organic superconductors. There are a number of review articles on this subject - most of them focus on either the quasi-one-dimensional or…
This paper reviews the experimental status of heavy baryons. It covers the aspec ts of production, spectroscopy and decay presenting recent results obtained in this fi eld. It closes with an outlook on further work on and with heavy baryons…
In the last years it has been shown that some properties of strongly coupled superconductors can be potentially described by classical general relativity living in one higher dimension, which is known as holographic superconductors. This…
We present a concise review of where we stand in particle physics today. First we discuss QCD, then the electroweak sector and finally the motivations and the avenues for new physics beyond the Standard Model.
Superconductivity has been investigated for over a century, but there are still open questions about what determines the critical current; the maximum current a superconductor can carry before switching to its normal state. For a given…
These lecture notes are meant to provide a pedagogical introduction, and present the latest theoretical and experimental developments on the physics of vortices in type II superconductors.
In our comment we show that some of the very difficult problems have been successfully solved. We have to focus on the resolved problems, since the authors claims: Our hope, however, is that the topics we have presented will provide…
