In poetry:
One day a kind ov judgment come,
The lightnin'-rod conductor
Got broke--the fluid struck his aunt,
An' in the root-house chuck'd her.
It laid her up for quite a while,
An' the judgment made the neighbors smile.

In science:
Hall constant in quasi-one dimensional conductors described by a band picture , (iv) good accord with RH for ladder systems calculated using the numerical method proposed in .
Reactive Hall response
At T T c the fluctuations of unbind electrons with energy higher than Fermi one under the influence of factors (1 - 8) are random (noise-like) and no selected order of fluctuations in normal conductors exists.
Hierarchic Models of Turbulence, Superfluidity and Superconductivity
Electric current in normal conductors at external voltage should dissipate due to fluctuations and energy exchange of the electrons with lattice determined by factors (1 - 8).
Hierarchic Models of Turbulence, Superfluidity and Superconductivity
But their contribution in regular conductors at T T c is very small.
Hierarchic Models of Turbulence, Superfluidity and Superconductivity
The interaction of e-effectons, having nonzero external momentum, with lattice is responsible for electric resistance in regular conductors.
