Superconductivity in the Periodic System
Abstract
The empirical regularities in the appearance of superconductivity in the periodic system discussed by Matthias are considered in the light of the microscopic theory of superconductivity proposed by Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer. A simple model of electrons and ions interacting via screened Coulomb forces is used to describe the electron-lattice interaction. With the aid of this model, it is shown how the theory of Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer provides both a satisfactory criterion for the appearance of superconductivity and a good qualitative account of the variation in transition temperature from one metal to another.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
