Which outcome occurs when operating a SQUID magnetometer above its material-specific critical temperature?

A)Loss of near-zero electrical resistance
B)Increased sensitivity to magnetic fields
C)Enhanced quantum tunneling probability
D)Increased stability against thermal fluctuations

💡 Explanation

Above the critical temperature, the **Meissner effect** breaks down because the material loses superconducting properties, therefore increased electrical resistance ensues rather than retaining superconductivity, allowing increased magnetic field sensitivity
