چکیده

We study the oxygen doping dependence of the equilibrium first-order melting and second-order glass transitions of vortices in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O 8+delta. Doping affects both anisotropy and disorder. Anisotropy scaling is shown to collapse the melting lines only where thermal fluctuations are dominant. Yet, in the region where disorder breaks that scaling, the glass lines are still collapsed. A quantitative fit to melting and replica symmetry-breaking lines of a 2D Ginzburg-Landau model further reveals that disorder amplitude weakens with doping, but to a lesser degree than thermal fluctuations, enhancing the relative role of disorder.

Experimental Investigation of Asymmetry of Vortex Flow Over Single Delta Wings

It is generally believed that, on slender delta wings, there is a critical state at which strong asymmetric vortices are found along the leading edge on the lee-side of the delta wing. These asymmetric vortices can lead to high lateral forces even when slender delta wing is at the zero angle of yaw. Some experimental studies reported recently, cast considerable doubt as to the validity of the a...

Pressure dependence of the irreversibility line in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O(8+delta): role of anisotropy in flux-line formation

One of the important problems of high-temperature superconductivity is to understand and ultimately to control fluxoid motion. Here we present data on the pressure dependence of the irreversibility line measured up to 2.5 GPa. We observe that the application of pressure changes the interplanar coupling by decreasing the c-axis length, without significantly disturbing the intraplanar superconduc...

تهیه و مطالعه شیشه های ﺳﺪﻳﻢ تترابورات دوپه شده با اکسید تربیوم

Terbium oxide doped tetraborate glasses were prepared from the reaction of Tb2O3 and Na2B4O7 .10 H2O on reagent grade. At first, the base borate glass of Na2B4O7 was prepared by melting dehydrated borax at 1000 ˚C for 30 min and then the obtained base glass was crushed and powdered. Appropriate amounts of Tb2O3 (5-20 mol %) and Na2B4O7 powdered glass were mixed and melted at 1200 ˚C for 15 min....

Visualization of interacting crossing vortex lattices in the presence of quenched disorder.

We have imaged interacting crossing pancake vortex (PV) and Josephson vortex (JV) lattices in highly anisotropic Bi2Sr2CaCu2O(8+delta) single crystals under tilted magnetic fields. The dependence of vortex structures on in-plane field is in good quantitative agreement with theoretical predictions, yielding an almost temperature-independent anisotropy parameter of gamma=640+/-25. We directly con...

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF THE PHASE TRANSITIONS IN CLUSTERS

We have studied the phase transitions in atomic clusters by molecular dynamics simulation, assuming Lennard-Jones interatomic pair potential. Calculations are performed by DAP parallel computer. The results are analyzed by simulating their orientational distribution plots (dot-plot), and neutron diffraction patterns. It is shown that all the main features of the bulk phase transitions are e...
