Hi everyone,

How did Bragg's X-ray diffraction aid in the research and development of superconductivity?

Thanks.

Hey! You don't really need to be able to answer a question like this in HSC Physics, it's a tad beyond the syllabus just in terms of linking the two, but remember that Bragg's experiments taught us a lot about the crystal lattice structure of metals. It is an understanding of this structure which enables us to understand, research, and develop for the idea of superconductivity :) :)
