The Vanishing of Thermoelectric Effects in Superconductors

The Vanishing of Thermoelectric Effects in Superconductors

It is shown that the vanishing of thermoelectric effects in superconductors is a simple consequence of the positive character of entropy production and of the Onsager relations, if the thermal conductivity of the superconducting sample is finite.
