Superconductor/Ferromagnet Nanostructures: An Illustration of the Physics of Hybrid Nanomaterials : World Scientific Publishing : 9789811249563 : 9811249563 : 24 Jan 2022 : "This book's main purpose is to explain how the equilibrium and transport properties of superconductor/ferromagnet heterostructures can be accurately calculated starting from a standard BCS type Hamiltonian. The main techniques, including both analyticaland numerical methods, are discussed in detail. Results obtained from these calculations are shown to be in excellent quantitative agreement with experiment. This is a theory book, but the theory is neither abstruse nor esoteric. Knowledge of only introductory graduate physics has been assumed; a solid undergraduate training and a bit of perseverance would also be enough. This book can easily be read and understood by experimentalists, and just about anybody can grasp the basics by referring to the figures and explanations. Quite apart from the manifold applications
