By presenting examples of peculiar magnetic behaviors, the book broadens the reader’s understanding of electromagnetism and its implications in superconductivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe book explores key concepts such as flux pinning, responsible for non-dissipative currents in DC systems and hysteretic irreversibility in AC systems. This irreversibility, akin to friction, arises from the instability in the motion of quantized magnetic flux lines. Additionally, the longitudinal magnetic field effect is examined, highlighting its role in advancing Maxwell’s theory. Through these discussions, readers will gain insights into the dynamics of quantized magnetic flux lines and the critical current density, crucial for the practical application of superconductors.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWith numerous appendices to support the derivation of complex equations, this book is an essential resource for students and young scientists interested in applied superconductivity, particularly in power applications. It offers a comprehensive introduction to the electromagnetic phenomena in superconductors, from fundamental principles to advanced topics. Graduate students, researchers, and engineers in the electric utility industry will find this book invaluable for its detailed exploration of superconductivity and its applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eResearchers and practitioners in the field of superconductivity, as well as engineers working in the electric utility industry, will benefit from the insights provided in this book. It serves as a critical resource for understanding the electromagnetic phenomena in superconductors and their practical applications, making it a must-read for those seeking to deepen their knowledge in this area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eProfessor Teruo Matsushita has studied flux pinning and related electromagnetic phenomena in superconductors for 48 years. The first research field includes theoretical calculation of elementary pinning force of specific pinning centers and estimation of the pinning force density as a function of the elementary pinning force and number density. In the latter research field, he establish the critical state theory that supports the well-known critical state model by using the first principles of minimizing the free energy in the reversible state followed by development to the irreversible state. The theoretical analyses of the longitudinal field problem and the effect of flux creep in high-temperature superconductors are also included in the latter category.  He is a member of the Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan, the Japan Society of Applied Physics, Cryogenics and Superconductivity of Japan, and Institute of Physics (UK).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22 July 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Switzerland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783031925436\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e225\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52243424379020,"sku":"9783031925436","price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031925436.jpg?v=1786541937","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783031925436","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
