As first pointed out by Bardeen and Ginzburg in the early sixties, the amount of magnetic flux carried by vortices depends on their distance to the sample edge and can be smaller than one flux quantum, f0 = h/2e. In bulk superconductors,…
A new kind of invasion percolation is introduced in order to take into account the inertia of the invader fluid. The inertia strength is controlled by the number N of pores (or steps) invaded after the perimeter rupture. The new model…
In the mixed state of type II superconductors, vortices penetrate the sample and form a correlated system due to the screening of supercurrents around them. Interestingly, we can study this correlated system as a function of density and…
