American Physical Society. (2011: Dallas, Tex.)
The history of superconductivity from its discovery by Kammerlingh Onnes in 1911 [sound recording], 2011 March 21.
Audio recording of session B3 of the March 2011 annual meeting of the American Physical Society, held in Dallas, TX in March 2011. This session was sponsored by the American Physical Society (APS) Forum on the History of Physics (FHP) and chaired by Martin Blume of Brookhaven National Laboratory, retired. Talks (and speakers) include: "Heike Kamerlingh Onnes and the Road to Superconductivity" (Dirk van Delft); "From the Meissner Effect to the Isotope Effect: Precursors to the Microscopic Theory of Superconductivity" (Brian Schwartz); "BCS: 50 Years" (Leon Cooper); "Giaever, Nb3Sn, and Josephson" (John Rowell); "The Arrival of High Temperature Superconductors" (Paul C. W. Chu). Topics discussed include superconductivity; Kammerlingh Onnes; the Meissner effect; Ivar Giaever; B. D. Josephson; the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory.
This professional society of educators, industrial and government research workers, and students of physics and related fields, was established in 1899 to promote the advancement and diffusion of the knowledge of physics. It was a founding Member Society of the American Institute of Physics. The American Physical Society (APS) meetings are a forum for scientists to gather and share research results on a wide range of physics and physics-related topics.
