Silsbees effect
Introduction:A state of material in which it has zero resistivity is called superconductivity. Superconductivity was discovered in 1911 by professor heike kamerlingh ones of leiden, who observed that mercury lost its resistivity completely below 4.2 k, the transition from normal conductivity occuring over a very narrow range of temperature of order of 0.05 k.

Figure shows the resistivity of mercury as a function of temperature. The temperature at which there is a transition from in normal state to superconducting state is called transition temperature. The element having atomic number greater than 50 shows superconductivity. Some of them exhibits superconductivity under pressure. There is no relation found between the occurance of superconductivity and crystal structure. Magnetic element noble metal do not show superconductivity. Silsbees effect:-

In 1914, k. Ones found that the transition temperature of super-conductor can be reduce by application of the magnetic field and that the superconducting state it-self is a destroyed when magnetic field exceed a critical value, Hc. It is observed that the critical field required to destroy the superconducting state progressively decrease with increase in temperature. The variation of critical field with temperature is shown in fig. At any temperature T1 (where T1<Tc), the material remain superconducting until the

corresponding critical field Hc1 is applied. When the applied field H>Hc1 the material

become normal. HcT=Hc (0){1-[T1/Tc]^2} Where Hc (0) is a critical field at temp T=0k Effect of current:The critical magnetic field need not be necessarily be an externally applied field. The field may be the result of an electric current flow in superconductor . therefore, there exist a critical value of current that can flow safely but beyond which the superconductor of the material vanishes. Thus, a superconductor in a long circular wire of redius r may be destroyed when the current I exceed Ic which at the surface of the wire would produce the field Hc. This Ic is given by Ic=2rHc
