Class Objectives
/Class Outline Lecture "Exploration of Novel Superconducting Phenomena by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)" presented by Prof. Hidekazu Mukuda from Osaka University, an expert specializing in superconductivity and NMR.

This lecture introduces the current frontiers of novel superconductivity research by tracing the history of quantum phenomena uncovered by low-temperature physics. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), in particular, is a powerful technique that uses atomic nuclei within a material as local probes, enabling highly sensitive observation of magnetic and charge fluctuations, and it has played an important role in elucidating the mechanisms of novel superconductors. Unlike conventional superconductivity mediated by electron-phonon interactions, a central question in high-temperature superconductors such as cuprates, iron-based compounds, and the recently discovered nickel oxides concerns how the complex fluctuations of electronic spin, charge, and orbital degrees of freedom relate to the emergence of superconductivity. The lecture will cover the basic principles of NMR measurements, the characteristics of these novel superconducting materials, and NMR results aimed at elucidating their superconducting mechanisms.
