Braided Rivers and Superconducting Vortex Avalanches
Magnetic vortices intermittently flow through preferred channels when they are forced in or out of a superconductor. We study this behavior using a cellular model, and find that the vortex flow can make braided rivers strikingly similar to aerial photographs of braided fluvial rivers, such as the Brahmaputra. By developing an analysis technique suitable for characterizing a selfaffine (multi)fr...
متن کاملVortex avalanches at one thousandth the superconducting transition temperature.
We study the nonequilibrium dynamics of vortex motion at millikelvin temperatures in untwinned single crystals of YBa2Cu3O72d. Above threshold fields of many tesla, flux jumps appear in the magnetic hysteresis B(H). These jumps correspond to a change of 750 vortices, on average, under our micrometer-sized Bi Hall probes. Not only are the threshold fields large, but they, and the characteristics...
متن کاملSuperconducting Vortex with Antiferromagnetic Core
We show that a superconducting vortex in underdoped high Tc superconductors could have an antiferromagnetic core. This type of vortex configuration arises as a topological solution in the recently constructed SO(5) nonlinear s model and in Landau-Ginzburg theory with competing antiferromagnetic and superconducting order parameters. Experimental detection of this type of vortex by muon spin reso...
متن کاملSuperconducting vortex avalanches, voltage bursts, and vortex plastic flow: Effect of the microscopic pinning landscape on the macroscopic properties
Using large-scale simulations on parallel processors, we analyze in detail the dynamical behavior of superconducting vortices undergoing avalanches. In particular, we quantify the effect of the pinning landscape on the macroscopic properties of vortex avalanches and vortex plastic flow. These dynamical instabilities are triggered when the external magnetic field is increased slightly, and are t...
متن کاملRobust Control Problems of Vortex Dynamics in Superconducting Films with Ginzburg-landau Complex Systems
We formulate and study robust control problems for a two-dimensional time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau model with Robin boundary conditions on phase-field parameter, which describes the phase transitions taking place in superconductor films with variable thickness. The objective of such study is to control themotion of vortices in the superconductor films by taking into account the influence of no...
