Abstract
A theory is presented of the static c-axis conductivity of YBa2Cu3O7-d elta in the normal state with varying oxygen concentration. The basis of the theory is an assumption that the hopping of electrons between t he CuO2 planes is due to resonant tunneling through localized centers between the planes. Comparison with recent systematic determinations o f the temperature-dependent conductivity at different oxygen concentra tions shows reasonable agreement.
