BCS Theory of Superconductivity

Image
  Introduction: Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory (BCS theory) is the first microscopic theory of superconductivity. Cooper had discovered that electrons are in pairs in a superconductor and named as Cooper pairs. The theory describes superconductivity as an effect caused by the condensation (I will talk briefly about condensation later in this article) of the Cooper pair. The motion of all the Cooper pairs within a single superconductor constitutes a system that functions as a single entity. Applying an electrical voltage to the superconductor causes all Cooper pairs to move, forming a current. Even in the absence of voltage, the current flow continues indefinitely. The reason is that the Cooper pairs encounter no opposition inside the conductor. We should stop all the cooper pairs simultaneously to cease the current flow. As the superconductor is warmed, its Cooper pairs separate into individual electrons, and the material becomes normal or non-superconducting. Superconductors abrupt

Treasure Island Kuruva: A Biodiversity Paradise Destination Alongside The Kabini River.

Location Nestled amidst the serene landscapes of the Kabini River in  Kerala , India lies a hidden gem known as Kuruva Island.  Nine hundred and fifty acres of protected river delta comprise three densely wooded islands and a few submergible satellite islands. This enchanting place is renowned for its remarkable biodiversity, including rare orchid species, lush ferns, and a haven for birds. This secluded island is home to numerous bird species, making it a haven for avid bird watchers and nature enthusiasts. Kuruva is an uninhabited island that boasts picturesque nature walks, tranquil resting places, and crystal-clear waters that invite visitors to take a refreshing dip. In this article, we will immerse ourselves in the captivating beauty of Kuruva Island while also exploring the unique experience of bamboo rafting, an eco-friendly way to traverse this natural wonder.  Unique Features are... No human habitation on the island, so you will still find it in its pristine and untouched f
