| Abstract |
Superfluid helium, a state of matter existing at low temperatures, shows many remarkable properties. One example is the so called fountain effect, where a heater can produce a jet of helium. This converts heat into mechanical motion; a machine with no moving parts, but working only below 2 K. Allen and Jones first demonstrated the effect in 1938, but their work was basically qualitative. We now present data of a quantitative version of the experiment. We have measured the heat supplied, the temperature and the height of the jet produced. We also develop equations, based on the two-fluid model of superfluid helium, that give a satisfactory fit to the data. The experiment has been performed by advanced undergraduate students in our home institution, and illustrates in a vivid way some of the striking properties of the superfluid state. |

| Abstract |
Penetration depth measurements show that thermal heat treatment in amorphous Zr70Cu30 induces a normal region 5000 Å thick at the surface of ultrarapid quenched ribbons. Upper critical field measurements indicate that the new induced phase is a normal one while the rest of the sample remains as a homogeneous superconducting phase. |

| Abstract |
We have studied the approach of the Abelian sand pile model towards the stationary, self-organized criticality state. The uncorrelated limit is shown both numerically and by a simple analysis to follow the log-normal distribution. We introduce and evaluate several correlation functions to study the correlated region. |

| Abstract |
By means of thermal heat treatment of amorphous Zr70Cu30 it is shown that the induced decrease in critical temperature is followed by a reduction in the electronic density of states of the same magnitude as that obtained by changing the Cu concentration. This result indicates that the density of states is the fundamental microscopic parameter determining the superconducting behavior. |

| Abstract |
We present results of the microfabrication of Josephson Junctions (JJs) of Superconductor-Normal-superconductor (SNS) type, as a first step in the acquisition of the know-how of superconducting devices applied to radioastronomy. A twojunction SQUID was built using a Nb/Al bilayer deposited on a Si wafer. The procedure needs only one mask and a single UV exposure (i.e., one photolithography step). We show the micrograph and the observed non linear characteristic I-V curve at 4K of the first device fabricated in the framework of ALMA Grant 31090010. |

| Abstract |
We measure transverse AC losses in the low- and high-amplitude regime of 2H-NbSe2 single crystals using vibrating superconductor methods. The measurements are sensitive to small deviations of the critical state. The data constitute evidence for a peak effect of the critical current as a function of the temperature in this compound. We construct in the H-T phase diagram the ''peak-effect'' line which is supposed to mark an abrupt cross-over in the vortex-pinning regime. |

| Abstract |
We have studied flux-lattice dissipation in YBa2Cu3Ox ceramic using a forced inverted torsional pendulum. Reversible restoring force variations during temperature sweep suggest that flux lines experience a “hard-soft” transition between 50 K and Tc. Measurements of internal friction and modulus change as a function of the applied stress show a typical depinning behaviour. This dissipation peak during the temperature sweep is understood as a hysteretic depinning in which the critical force depends upon the penetration depth. |

| Abstract |
When a type-I superconductor with a surface nucleation field Hc3(T)>Hc(T) (thermodynamic critical field) is thermally cycled in an axially applied magnetic field H0 between the temperatures T(Hc3) and about T(Hc), experiments show that the magnetization changes reversibly. The latter is diamagnetic near T(Hc3) but can be paramagnetic just above T(Hc). This behavior is explained by assuming that the fluxoid quantum number b is fixed at the transition from the normal to the superconducting state and retained at lower temperatures. The value of b is determined almost entirely by the flux at the transition which is enclosed by a contour located at a distance ξ1.7 from the surface inside the cylinder (ξ is the coherence length). The temperature variation of the order parameter f at the surface of the cylinder, the magnetization m, and the temperature at which m=0 for f≠0 are calculated for R>>ξ. Conservation of the fluxoid quantum number, while T is varied causes the two opposing surface currents to become imbalanced. This is the source of the observed para- and diamagnetism. |

| Abstract |
The critical-current curves of amorphous samples which exhibit collective flux pinning have been analyzed, and it was found that the nonlinear part can be fitted by an expression of the form V(I)[(I-IK)/IK]. This form, which could be due to critical behavior, is consistent with an interpretation of the unpinning of vortices in the collective regime as a phase transition between the static flux-line lattice (FLL) and the FLL in steady-state movement as has been proposed by Fisher. |

| Abstract |
The lower critical field Bc1 of the high-Tc superconductor La1.8Sr0.2CuO4 (Tc=40 K, Bcless-than-or-equals, slant7.7 mT) and of amorphous Zr70Cu30 (Tc=2.6K, Bc1less-than-or-equals, slant3.8 mT) is obtained from the resonance frequency ?/2? of a vibrating reed made of these materials. At applied magnetic fields Ba<Bc1, ?(Ba)=?i(Ba) as predicted for an ideally diamagnetic reed. Above Bc1 we observe a reversible linear law ?2??2inot, vert, similarB2a?B2c1. This allows a simple definition of Bc1 even in ceramic superconductors into which flux starts to penetrate at Bamuch less-thanBc1 due to their granular structure. |
