Publisher's Synopsis
This Workshop took place after the International Conference on Materials and Mechanisms of Superconductivity - High Temperature Superconductors III (Kanazawa, 22-27 July 1991) and attracted some of the most distingusihed participants from that major event. From the conference some key areas were selected and discussed at the workshop in great detail.;These include cuprate superconductors and a new class of high-T c M x C 60 . The investigation of the similarity and dissimilarity between the properties of both superconductors may lead to an understanding of the mechanism of high-T c superconductivity. Papers on the superconducting properties of the cuprate oxides related to the flux-lines and their dynamics are also included. This carefully edited volume is therefore a very readable account of some of the most important aspects of high-T c superconductivity as seen by the leading authorities in 1991. It can be highly recommended for its originality as well as its archival value.
