ABSTRACT: When we place a superconductor above a magnet, we observe a levitation of
the superconductor above the magnet. But when placing a perfect diamagnetic material above a magnet, no levitation is
observed. This difference in behavior between the superconductor and the
perfect diamagnetic in the presence of an external magnetic field is explained
by the classical description of the Meissner effect implemented in this
article. We have shown here that the Meissner effect is nothing more than an
electromagnetic interaction between the magnetic field created by the
superconductor and the magnetic field of the magnet. This classical description
of the Meissner effect also allowed us to give a more realistic explanation of
the expansion of the universe. We have shown
that this expansion is a phenomenon that simply results from a Meissner effect between superconducting dark matter and the magnetic fields of stars. We
also pointed out that this expansion is accelerated because the gravitational
force between dark matter and the stars around it decreases as these stars move
away from the superconducting dark matter. We also used this classical
description of the Meissner effect to propose a new method of remote sensing in
space in which the superconducting satellite is in perpetual levitation on the
night side of the earth and a new and more efficient way to discover new
particles through a superconducting detector levitating in the upper
atmosphere.
