Equilibrium vortex configuration in conventional type II superconductors containing columnar defects is theoretically investigated. Near the upper critical field a single defect causes a strong local deformation of the vortex lattice. This…
Superconducting mesoscopic devices in magnetic fields present novel properties which can only be accounted for by both the quantum confinement of the Cooper pairs and by the interaction between the magnetic-field-induced vortices.…
In the present work we investigate the behavior of a vortex in a long superconducting cylinder near to a columnar defect at the center. The derivations of the local magnetic field distribution and the Gibbs free energy will be carried out…
The discrete shell structure of vortex matter strongly influences the flux dynamics in mesoscopic superconducting Corbino disks. While the dynamical behavior is well understood in large and in very small disks, in the intermediate-size…
Studies involving vortex dynamics and their interaction with pinning centers are an important ingredient to reach higher critical currents in superconducting materials. The vortex distribution around arrays of engineered defects, such as…
A thin superconducting disk, with radius $R=4\xi$ and height $H=\xi$, is studied in the presence of an applied magnetic field parallel to its major axis. We study how the boundaries influence the decay of the order parameter near the edges…
The dense vortex matter structure and associated magnetization are calculated for type-II superconducting mesoscopic disks. The magnetization exhibits generically first-order phase transitions as the number of vortices changes by one and…
We show that while orbital magnetic field and disorder, acting individually weaken superconductivity, acting together they produce an intriguing evolution of a two-dimensional type-II s-wave superconductor. For weak disorder, the critical…
Topological defects such as vortices, dislocations or domain walls define many important effects in superconductivity, superfluidity, magnetism, liquid crystals, and plasticity of solids. Here we address the breakdown of the…
This is an analytical study of pinning and spontaneous vortex phase is a system consisting of a superconducting thin film pierced by a long ferromagnetic columnar defect of finite radius $R$. The magnetic fields, screening currents, energy…
In a superconducting mesoscopic sample, with dimensions comparable to the London penetration depth, some properties are qualitatively different to those found in the bulk material. These properties include magnetization, vortex dynamics and…
Defects in superconducting systems are ubiquitous and nearly unavoidable. They can vary in nature, geometry, and size, ranging from microscopic-size defects such as dislocations, grain boundaries, twin planes, and oxygen vacancies, to…
We consider flux lines in presence of a dense square array of columnar defects, with insulating core and radius of the order of the coherence length. The properties of the phase transition from the flux line regime to the localized…
Phase transitions between different (i.e. giant and multi-vortex) superconducting states and between the superconducting-normal state of mesoscopic disks and rings are studied in the presence of an external magnetic field by solving the two…
A low concentration of columnar defects is reported to transform a first-order vortex lattice melting line in BSCCO crystals into alternating segments of first-order and second-order transitions separated by two critical points. As the…
Conventional superconductors have vortices carrying integer multiples of magnetic flux quantum while unconventional ones, with p- or d-wave order parameter, allow half-integer fluxes. Here we show that mesoscopic size effects stabilize…
The conditions for the entry of vortices into type-II superconductors being in the Meissner and/or mixed state, are studied by both numerical and analytical solution of the Ginzburg-Landau equations. A modulation instability of the…
We discuss the physics of vortices in the circumstellar disks associated with young stellar objects. We elucidate the basic physical properties of these localized storm systems. In particular, we consider point vortices, linear vortices,…
We analyze magnetic textures in a thin magnetic film and screening currents induced by these textures in a superconducting film. The films are supposed to be parallel and close to each other, but interact only via magnetic fields. We…
Accretion discs that are tilted with respect to their compact hosts can warp out-of-plane through general relativistic frame-dragging. Warp influences disc dynamics in ways that have been studied extensively, especially as regards…
