  ABSTRACT: Meissner effect is one of the two fundamental properties of superconductors, it allows them to actively exclude external magnetic fields from their interior, leaving the field to decay quickly from the surface to the interior within a very thin layer whose thickness is characterized by the penetration depth . Based on the mechanism of “close-shell inversion” for superconductivity proposed earlier, we proceed in this paper to calculate the magnetic penetration depth. It is found that repelling the external magnetic field is just a spontaneous and dynamic response of conduction electrons in superconductors. Calculation results show that the net magnetic field decays exponentially, in consistent with the existing theories and experimental data.
