What is another word for normal-superconducting transition?
Pronunciation: [nˈɔːmə͡lsˈuːpəkəndˌʌktɪŋ tɹansˈɪʃən] (IPA) 
The normal-superconducting transition refers to the point at which a material transitions from a normal state, in which it has electrical resistance, to a superconducting state, in which it has zero electrical resistance. Other terms used to refer to this transition include the superconducting transition, the critical transition, and the zero-resistance transition. In addition, the temperature at which this transition occurs is known as the critical temperature, or Tc. Understanding this transition and the factors that affect it is crucial in the development and utilization of superconducting materials in various applications, from the medical industry to energy production.
