Numerical simulations of the quantized vortices on a thin superconducting hollow sphere
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the vortex nucleation on a thin superconducting hollow sphere. The problem is studied using a simplified system of Ginzburg–Landau equations. We present numerical algorithms which preserve the discrete gauge invariance for both time dependent and time independent simulations. The spatial discretization is based on a spherical centroidal Voronoi tessellation which offers a very effective high resolution mesh on the sphere for the order parameter as well as other physically interesting variables such as the super-current and the induced magnetic field. Various vortex configurations and energy diagrams are computed. Dynamic responses of the vortices to the applied current are also simulated. 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Three-dimensional calculations of the magnetic fields in a finite superconducting hollow cylinder in an applied axial magnetic field
In this study, a set of self-consistent coupled-integral equations for the local magnetic flux and current distributions in a finite superconducting hollow cylinder under an axial magnetic field has been directly derived by using the Biot-Savart law within the framework of the critical-state model. The equations were first solved numerically in the three-dimensional space before obtaining the h...
متن کاملApproximations of a Ginzburg-Landau model for superconducting hollow spheres based on spherical centroidal Voronoi tessellations
In this paper the numerical approximations of the GinzburgLandau model for a superconducting hollow spheres are constructed using a gauge invariant discretization on spherical centroidal Voronoi tessellations. A reduced model equation is used on the surface of the sphere which is valid in the thin spherical shell limit. We present the numerical algorithms and their theoretical convergence as we...
متن کاملNon-integer flux quanta for a spherical superconductor
A thin film superconductor shaped into a spherical shell at whose center lies the end of long thin solenoid in which there is an integer flux NΦ0 has been previously extensively studied numerically as a model of a two-dimensional superconductor. The emergent flux from the solenoid produces a radial Bfield at the superconducting shell and N vortices in the superconducting film. We study here the...
