Suppression of $\bbox{T_c}$ in superconducting amorphous wiresDOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.83.191 Abstract: 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.
