← ScienceWhich mechanism causes zero electrical resistance in superconducting niobium cavities?
A)Cooper pair formation✓
B)Increased electron scattering
C)Quantum entanglement dominance
D)Phonon-mediated hole conduction
💡 Explanation
Cooper pair formation causes superconductivity because electrons form bound pairs. This allows them to move coherently through the lattice rather than interact individually; therefore, resistance vanishes, rather than scattering increasing resistance.
