Werthamer–Helfand–Hohenberg theory

In physics, The Werthamer–Helfand–Hohenberg (WHH) theory was proposed in 1966 by N. Richard Werthamer, Eugene Helfand and Pierre Hohenberg^[1] to go beyond BCS theory of superconductivity and it provides predictions of upper critical field ( $H c2$ ) in type-II superconductors.^[1]^[2] The theory predicts the upper critical field ( $H c2$ ) at 0 K from $T c$ and the slope of $H c2$ at $T c$ .
