| Summary |
|---|
| Lectures from the SSP cover a large domain of microscopic and phenomenological properties of SS. In the frame of the lecture are included tensor description of physical properties, structure and bindings of SS, thermal , dielectric and electric properties of SS and finally optical and magnetic behaviour of SS. |
