Preferred Label : superconducting transition;
IUPAC definition : A transition at the critical temperature, T c, below which the resistance of electrical
conductors becomes zero and magnetic flux is excluded. Examples: The transitions of
Nb sub 3 /sub Sn, Nb sub 3 /sub Al and V sub 3 /sub Si to superconductors (15 K
T c 20 K) and YBa sub 2 /sub Cu sub 3 /sub O sub 7 i -x /i /sub (x 0.2) at 90
