A STUDY OF THE Y-Ba-Cu-Ag-O SYSTEM: The specimens studied were produced using the standard ceramic technique. High purity source materials Y2O3, BaCO3CuO, and Ag2O were used. Solid state synthesis was carried out at 900 C for six hours in oxygen ambient. Pressed samples of 16 mm diameter and 2 mm thick were processed in an atmosphere of pure oxygen at 950 C for 12 hours. The transition temperature to the superconducting state was measured by the four point probe resistance technique. The ac magnetic susceptibility was determined by the method outlined in [1].
