The critical elements in reaching the superconducting state are for conduction electrons to somehow form Cooper pairs, which then in turn automatically condense into a coherent flow, the “coherent” aspect being similar to that of a laser, i.e. everybody in step!
How the Cooper pairs are formed ( according to the present theory ) is obviously a critical factor in superconductivity. One theory is an electron passing by the crystal lattice of atoms in the conductor distorts the lattice in such a way the next electron is attracted to the lattice distortion. Or instead of the electron-pairing being mediated by lattice vibrations, the interaction of the conduction electrons may be due to charge or electron spin fluctuations in some electronic subsystem.
In any case the above statement that electrons can bond together to form “Cooper pairs “ is highly controversial when looked at both from the quantum and the classical viewpoint.
The process of the flow of electrical energy in an electrical conductor as described here in the “Aumic” Theory , illustrates without any anomalies every phenomenon associated with super conductivity. It has been stated , hitherto in this paper , that electrical energy in a circuit carrying a current , is carried by “conduction photons “ and not by electrons as has hitherto been the convention. This means that the electrical conduction process is started of by the excitation of electrons and the emission of “conduction photons “ these photons are in turn absorbed and emitted by peripheral and free electrons present in the conductor and electrical energy is established within the conductor at or near the speed of light. Since the free electrons are bound by the Pauli Exclusion Principle which states that a free electron “cannot” emit or absorb photons it follows that the electron needs to immediately absorb a photon of the same energy that it has emitted , this causes the “conduction photons “ to re-enter the conductor at the nearest possible point of entry , resulting in the lines of electromagnetic force seen around and electrical conductor. Now consider the case in a super cooled electrical conductor in which there is no resistance , once the current is established in the conductor it would flow almost indefinitely , no lines of force would be seen around the conductor since the “conduction photons” within the conductor already have a circular path enabling their emission and absorption by electrons within the conductor , without leaving the conductor. Yet because of the fact that the photons near the conductors surface can link up laterally with “virtual photons “ in the air near the conductors surface , “magnetic” effects would still be seen , such a “magnetic” field would have no south or north pole . At the same time external electromagnetic waves would not be able to penetrate into the conductor since there is no electromagnetic field present with which to interact.
In effect the theory of electrical conduction as stated in this paper accounts exactly for all the phenomenon displayed by a superconductor.
To bear out this view here are some observations made on superconductivity by in one his lectures given in 1995 in Dallas , Texas:
“Superconductivity is not electricity. Superconductivity is like a world of it's own. A material that is a superconductor contains one vibrational frequency within it, a lot like a laser. The light flows perpetually within the system. Nowhere in the system is there any voltage. You can't hook up a wire here and a wire there to the superconductor and get current to flow in and out of it, because to get current off of the wire, you've got to have a voltage, and yet by definition a superconductor won't allow any voltage. So the material's a perfect insulator, not just a superconductor. But if you resonant frequency tune the wire so that the electrons vibrate at the same frequency as the superconductor, then the electrons will flow on as light, as electron pairs. They will pair up and flow on, because they're seeking the path of least resistance which is the superconductor.”
“It’s different than an ordinary conductor and shouldn't be thought of as electricity, because it's light. An amazing thing is, if you resonant frequency tune a conductor to the frequency of the superconductor, the energy starts flowing, but it's flowing as light. Any amount of light can exist in the same space-time. There's only so much electricity can flow on the conductor, but light can flow on forever.”
“Around the superconductor a Meisner field is formed. The Meisner field has no north or south pole; it's just a field, but it's unique in magnetism in that it has no north or south pole. The size of the magnetic field is proportional to the amount of light that is flowing within the superconductor.”
