Do superconductors violate Lenz's law? Mixed and intermediate states | | J.E. Hirsch
; | | Date: |
4 Sep 2006 | | Subject: | Superconductivity; Strongly Correlated Electrons | | Abstract: | We recently argued that measuring the rotation of a superconducting body as it expels magnetic flux from its interior will show that either Lenz’s law is violated or that kinetic angular momentum is created, and that the latter is inconsistent with BCS theory. Here we discuss the case of type II superconductors and of type I superconductors in the intermediate state. We argue that BCS theory as applied to the description of the transition to the mixed state or the intermediate state predicts rotation of the body that is inconsistent with Lenz’s law. Instead, the theory of hole superconductivity predicts rotation of the body that is consistent with Lenz’s law, creation of angular momentum, and explains the mechanism of generation of tubular and laminar magnetic field patterns. We discuss how to test some of these predictions experimentally. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0609032 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
