An alternative formulation of the theory of superconductivity

  • Published:
Physik der kondensierten Materie

The cluster variation method of the cooperative phenomena has been applied to the study of the theory of superconductivity. The results obtained in this formulation are equivalent to the BCS results and follow in a straight forward and natural way both at zero and finite temperatures.
