Microwave properties of superconducting MgB2

Microwave properties of superconducting MgB2

Measurements of the $10GHz$ microwave surface resistance of dense $MgB_{2}$ wire and pellet are reported. Significant improvements are observed in the wire with reduction of porosity. The data lie substantially above the theoretical estimates for a pure BCS s-wave superconductor . However the $R_{s}(20K)$ of the wire is an order …
