Abstract

Reentrant behavior is known to exist and magnetic-field-induced superconductivity has been predicted in superconductors with Kondo impurities. We present a simple framework for understanding these phenomena and generalize it to explain the long-standing puzzle of paramagnetic reentrance in thick proximity systems as being due to Kondo impurities.
