  • Abstract
    A resonator method is presented which enables R, and X8 to be determined as a function of temperature with the exclusion of the thermal expansion effect. Results for R, and X, are given for a bulk YBCO sample at 13 GHz over the range 15-190 K. Good agreement with the “enhanced” two-fluid model is found for λ(T), and λ=657 nm at 77 K
