The 22 pages that link to BCS theory, each with the reason it gives.

• SuperconductivityRelated: It accounts for how electron pairing produces zero resistance and an energy gap.

• Josephson effectRelated: It explains the paired condensate whose phase coherence makes Josephson tunneling possible.

• Cooper pairRelated: The theory generalized the Cooper problem to a macroscopic superconducting ground state.

• Goldstone theoremRelated: Nambu used superconductivity as a model for understanding spontaneous symmetry breaking in field theory.

• SuperconductorRelated: It accounts for how paired electrons produce superconductivity in many elemental and alloy materials.

• Brian JosephsonRelated: Its superconducting electron pairs provide the coherent quantum state underlying Josephson tunneling.

• Heike Kamerlingh OnnesRelated: Developed decades after Onnes’s discovery, it explained the mechanism his experiments had exposed.

• Yoichiro NambuRelated: Nambu adapted its mathematical structure to describe symmetry breaking in relativistic quantum field theory.

• David Lee (physicist)Related: Helium-3’s paired atoms provide a neutral-fluid counterpart to pairing ideas developed for superconductors.

• Anthony LeggettRelated: Leggett adapted its pairing ideas to the more complex phases of helium-3.
