Abstract: We have investigated the magnetization in thin (Y;Gd)Ba2Cu3O7-delta superconducting films in the 100 μs time scale. Magnetic moment was measured with a non-conventional technique that combines the use of a pulsed magnetic field and a synchronized pulsed laser. Both virgin and magnetically cycled samples were examined and results are described within Bean's critical state model.

Abstract: A nonconventional technique for the measurement of magnetic relaxation in superconducting films at short times (similar to 10(-5) s) is described. This technique combines the application of a pulsed magnetic field and a synchronized high-energy pulsed laser. Remanent magnetic relaxation in (Y;Gd)Ba2Cu3O7-delta thin films is reported over five decades time at reduced temperatures above 0.8. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.

Abstract: We report on transport and ac susceptibility studies below the peak effect in twinned YBa2Cu3O7 single crystals. We find that disorder generated at the peak effect can be partially inhibited by forcing vortices to move with an ac driving current. The vortex system can be additionally ordered below a well-defined temperature where elastic interactions between vortices overcome pinning-generated stress and a plastic-to-elastic crossover seems to occur. The combined effect of these two processes results in vortex structures with different mobilities that give place to history effects.
