This document discusses the interaction between magnetism and superconductivity. It describes different types of magnetism like ferromagnetism and diamagnetism. It also discusses the basics of superconductivity and how a superconducting state can be induced by a magnetic field. The document then focuses on the iron-based superconductor KxFe2-ySe2, including its crystal growth process and characterization techniques used to study it like X-ray diffraction and magnetization. It aims to understand how the different phases in KxFe2-ySe2 interact individually and with each other, and why high-temperature superconductors form.
