%0 Journal Article %T Suppression of $\bbox{T_c}$ in superconducting amorphous wires %A Yuval Oreg %A Alexander M. Finkel'stein %J Physics %D 1999 %I arXiv %R 10.1103/PhysRevLett.83.191 %X The suppression of the mean field temperature of the superconducting transition, $T_c$, in homogeneous amorphous wires is studied. We develop a theory that gives $T_c$ in situations when the dynamically enhanced Coulomb repulsion competes with the contact attraction. The theory accurately describes recent experiments on $T_c$--suppression in superconducting wires, after a procedure that minimizes the role of nonuniversal mechanisms influencing $T_c$ is applied. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/9906371v1
