Abstrakt: Recent observations of superconductivity-dependent friction in nitrogen films adsorbed on lead substrates have inspired a number of theoretical and experimental efforts to understand the origins of this phenomenon. The status of these efforts is discussed, focussing on the role of electronic contributions to friction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
