The Meissner effect and the associated perfect "bulk" diamagnetism together with zero resistance and gap opening are characteristic features of the superconducting state. In the pseudogap state of cuprates unusual diamagnetic signals as…
Within a gauge-invariant microscopic kinetic theory, we study the electromagnetic response in the superconducting states. Both superfluid and normal-fluid dynamics are involved. We predict that the normal fluid is present only when the…
We review the literature on what classical physics has to say about the Meissner effect and the London equations. We first discuss the relevance of the Bohr-van Leeuwen theorem for the perfect diamagnetism of superconductors. The conclusion…
We investigate the nonlinear Meissner effect microscopically. Previous studies did not consider a certain type of interaction effect on the nonlinear phenomena. The scattering amplitude barely appears without being renormalized into the…
It is generally believed that superconducting materials are divided into two classes: `conventional' and `unconventional'. Conventional superconductors (the elements and thousands of compounds including $MgB_2$) are described by…
The problems of Classical Electrodynamics with the electron equation of motion and with non-integrable singularity of its self-field stress tensor are well known. They are consequences, we show, of neglecting terms that are null off the…
We point out that the Meissner effect, the process by which a superconductor expels magnetic field from its interior, represents an unsolved puzzle within the London-BCS theoretical framework used to describe the physics of conventional…
Dynamic Hubbard models describe the fact that the wavefunction of an electron in an atomic orbital expands when a second electron occupies the orbital. These models give rise to superconductivity driven by lowering of kinetic energy when…
We show that typicality holds for a class of nonequilibrium systems, i.e., nonequilibrium steady states (NESSs): almost all the pure states properly sampled from a certain Hilbert space well represent a NESS and characterize its intrinsic…
The Meissner effect is the expulsion of magnetic flux from the interior of a bulk superconductor in the presence of the constant critical magnetic field by the persistent current circulating near the surface of the superconductor. The…
Schr\"odinger equation with given, {\it a priori} known current is formulated. A non-zero current density is maintained in the quantum system via a subsidiary condition imposed by vector, local Lagrange multiplier. Constrained minimization…
The pressure in a classical Coulomb fluid at equilibrium is obtained from the Maxwell tensor at some point inside the fluid, by a suitable statistical average. For fluids in an Euclidean space, this is a fresh look on known results. But,…
A superconductor is a material that conducts electric current with no resistance. Superconductivity and magnetism are known to be antagonistic phenomena: superconductors expel weak external magnetic field (the Meissner effect) while a…
The question of how a metal becoming superconducting expels a magnetic field is addressed. It is argued that the conventional theory of superconductivity has not answered this question despite its obvious importance. We argue that the…
A two-fluid model is proposed to describe the transport properties of granular superconductors. Using the resistively shunted junction model and some aspects of the two-level system theory, a statistical model is developed which takes into…
The Meissner effect is studied by using an approach based on Newton and Maxwell's equations. The objective is to assess the relevance of London's equation and shed light on the connection between the Meissner and skin effects. The…
We use the Metropolis algorithm to study the stability of superfluid flow in a model system, namely the two-dimensional planar XY model. Flow properties are examined by studying the behaviour of the system in meta-stable ``twisted'' states.…
We study the formation of a large-scale coherent structure (a condensate) in classical wave equations by considering the defocusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation as a representative model. We formulate a thermodynamic description of the…
Ideal fluid dynamics is studied as a relativistic field theory with particular importance on its hamiltonian structure. The Schwinger condition, whose integrated version yields the stress tensor conservation, is explicitly verified both in…
Microscopic variations in composition or structure can lead to nanoscale inhomogeneity in superconducting properties such as the magnetic penetration depth, but measurements of these properties are usually made on longer length scales. We…
