Point vortices take a triangular lattice structure in a rotating system as a minimum energy state. We perform a numerical simulation of point vortex systems using initial conditions indicating that the triangular lattice is randomly…
We consider the ground state configurations of the Josephson vortex lattice in layered superconductors. Due to commensurability effects with the layered structure, the lattice has multiple configurations, both aligned with layers and…
We report on small angle neutron scattering measurements of the vortex lattice in twin-free YBa2Cu3O7, extending the previously investigated maximum field of 11~T up to 16.7~T with the field applied parallel to the c axis. This is the first…
In superconductors with large values of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter, exposed to magnetic fields close to the upper critical field, the magnetic field is practically homogeneous across the sample and the density of supercurrents is…
We consider the melting of the vortex solid in highly anisotropic layered superconductors with a small concentration of random columnar pinning centers. Using large-scale numerical minimization of a free-energy functional, we find that…
Five years ago the talk "The vortex lattice melting theory as example of science fiction" cond-mat/9811051 was presented. Nevertheless this theory predominates up to now and very many people devote oneself to it. It is explained in the…
Phase fluctuations in the superconducting order parameter, which are responsible for the melting of the Abrikosov vortex lattice below the mean field $H_{c2}$, are shown to dramatically enhance the scattering of quasi-particles by the…
We study the energetics of superconducting vortices in the SO(5) model for high-$T_c$ materials proposed by Zhang. We show that for a wide range of parameters normally corresponding to type II superconductivity, the free energy per unit…
Assuming that the order parameter corresponds to an equal spin triplet pairing symmetry state, we calculate the effect of phase fluctuations in quasi-one-dimensional superconductors at high magnetic fields applied along the y (b') axis. We…
Theory of melting of the vortex lattice in type II superconductors in the framework of Ginzburg - Landau approach is presented. The melting line location is determined and magnetization and specific heat jumps along it are calculated. The…
Vortex matter phase transitions in the high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 were studied using local magnetization measurements combined with a vortex 'shaking' technique. The measurements revealed thermodynamic evidence of a…
We study the melting of the pancake vortex lattice in a layered superconductor in the limit of vanishing Josephson coupling. Our approach combines the methodology of a recently proposed mean-field substrate model for such systems with the…
The vortex-lattice melting transitions in two typical iron-based high-Tc superconductor $Ba(Fe_{1-x}Co_{x})_{2}As_{2}$ (122-type) and$Nd(O_{1-x}F_{x})FeAs$ (1111-type) for magnetic fields both parallel and perpendicular to the anisotropy…
We show in a realistic $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$ symmetry gap model for a cuprate superconductor that the clean vortex lattice has discontinuous structural transitions (at and near T=0), as a function of the magnetic field $B$ along the c-axis. The…
The statistical mechanics of the flux-line lattice in extreme type-II super- conductors is studied within the framework of the uniformly frustrated anisotropic 3D XY-model. A finite-field counterpart of an Onsager vortex-loop transition in…
Low temperature measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of LSCO suggest that the superconducting transition is associated with the disappearance of a vortex liquid. In this note we wish to draw attention to the fact that spin-orbit-like…
The pre-melting of high vortex density planes observed recently in layered superconductors in tilted magnetic field is explained theoretically. Based on the structural information of the crossing lattices of pancake and Josephson vortices…
We carry out Monte Carlo simulations of the uniformly frustrated 3d XY model as a model for vortex line fluctuations in a high Tc superconductor. A density of vortex lines of f=1/25 is considered. We find two sharp phase transitions. The…
The iron-based superconductors are characterized by strong fluctuations due to high transition temperatures and small coherence lengths. We investigate fluctuation behavior in the magnetic iron-pnictide superconductor…
In the cuprates, the lightly-doped region is of major interest because superconductivity, antiferromagnetism, and the pseudogap state \cite{Timusk,Lee,Anderson} come together near a critical doping value $x_c$. These states are deeply…
