How Superconductors Work at the Quantum Level
In 1908, Dutch physicist Heike Onnes figured out how to turn helium gas to liquified helium for the first time. He cooled Mercury and found that all its electrical resistance went away. Electricity in a superconducting wire will continue...

The Physics of Superconductors
How a superconductor works. Everything from the physics and some of the history as well. Superconductors were discovered in 1911 by Heike Kamerlingh Onnes. It was discovered because it was made possible to liquefy helium which produced...

Cryogenic equipment at CERN.
The particle accelerators in the Large Hadron Collider require superconducting magnets to accelerate the protons, and the magnets must be cooled with liquid helium to maintain a temperature low enough for superconductivity. The magnets...
