Abstract

The penetration depth of a low frequency, weak magnetic field into superconducting indium has been studied as a function of temperature between 2 K andT c . The data are analyzed in terms of the BCS theory. Values of λL (0) and λ(0) have been determined as 299 and 553 Å, respectively, with an accuracy of 10%.
