The publication of Volume V of Physical Properties of High Temperature Superconductors is expected in March, 1996. It will have chapters of interest for both fundamental studies and applied research. The topics discussed are expected to include the electromagnetic response (penetration depth and surface resistance), local lattice distortions, the influence of vortex fluctuations on macroscopic behavior, the properties of superlattices, and the symmetry of the superconducting order parameter.Contents:Introduction and Overview of Some Recent Progress (D M Ginsberg)Microwave Surface Impedance of High Temperature Superconductors (D A Bonn & W N Hardy)Superconductivity in Cuprate Superlattices (I Bozovic & J N Eckstein)Effects of Vortex and Critical Fluctuations on Magnetization of High Tc Superconductors (Q Li)Lattice Effects in High-Tc Superconductors (T Egami & S J L Billinge)Experimental Constraints on the Pairing State of the Cuprate Superconductors: An Emerging Consensus (J F Annett, N Goldenfeld & A J Leggett)Readership: Condensed matter physicists.Key Features:Historical survey, main concepts and some applicationsIncludes contributions from most of the main scientists in the field (Rössler, Birman, and Lefranc)An introduction for beginners is included
