    "abstract": "Superconduction manifests when a steady-state current flows through a\nmaterial without an electric field being present. It is argued here that the\nabsence of scattering of the charge-carriers, although absolutely necessary, is\nnot sufficient to explain why an electric field is zero when a current flows\nbetween two contacts to a superconducting material. It is concluded that an\nelectric field, and thus a resistance, must manifest unless (i) the\ncharge-carriers form part of an array of dielectric charge centres, and (ii)\nthe charge-carriers can increase their velocities without increasing their\nkinetic energies. A model is propoased which allows these requirements to\nmanifest. The model is fitted to selected experimental results which have been\npublished for low temperature metals, YBCO, and highly-doped p-type diamond. In\neach case a satisfactory description of the experimental results is\ndemonstrated.",
