Decca, R. S., H. D. Drew, E. Osquiguil, B. Maiorov, and J. Guimpel. "Anomalous proximity effect in underdoped YBa2Cu3O6+x Josephson junctions." Physical Review Letters 85, no. 17 (2000): 3708–3711.
Abstract: Experiments were carried out to probe the underdoped insulating material by the Josephson effect. Junctions were fabricated by exploiting the capability of locally photodoping insulating RBa2Cu3O6+x (R = rare earth) material. The existence of an anomalously large proximity effect was confirmed. The critical current of the junctions was consisted with the conventional Josephson relationship.

Luzuriaga, J. "Sphere on a vibrating reed for measurements of turbulence in superfluid helium." Journal of Alloys and Compounds (2000): 265–268.
Abstract: A modification of the vibrating reed, in which a massive sphere is made to oscillate at the end of a cantilevered beam, has been used for measurements in superfluid helium. The apparatus operates in the same way as a conventional vibrating reed with capacitive detection and drive. However, when operating submerged in the liquid, the frequency changes give information on the superfluid fraction, and the dissipation can be used to obtain information on the change of liquid flow, from laminar to turbulent. The spherical geometry allows an exact calculation of all parameters in the laminar regime, so departures due to the turbulence can be better quantified. The method has been found to work well in practice, and some measurements on the turbulent regime in the superfluid are presented.

Pedrazzini, P., and D. Jaccard. "The critical pressure of chromium." Physica B: Condensed Matter 403, no. 5-9 (2008): 1222–1224.
Abstract: We present first results of high-pressure resistivity measurements on pure chromium. Two pieces of evidence show that spin density wave magnetism is suppressed at a critical pressure pc?10GPa, namely, the evolution of the ordering temperature TN(p) and the rapid decrease of the residual resistivity close to pc. Our discussion profits from the comparison between pressurized-Cr and the Cr1-xVx alloy, for which a large amount of information on its electronic properties is available.

Rodr. "Role of anisotropy in the vortex lattice of superconductors high-Q oscillator measurements in 2H-NbSe2 and La1.825Sr0.075CuO4." Physica C: Superconductivity and its applications 229, no. 1-2 (1994): 59–64.
Abstract: Measurement of the response of the flux-line lattice in NbSe2 and La1.825Sr0.075CuO4 show important differences between these two materials. In particular, we have studied the magnetic-field and angular dependence of the response of a high-Q mechanical oscillator in fields of up to 1 T. The features seen in NbSe2 seem to be well explained in terms of a change in the pinning regime, usually termed the “peak effect” in the critical current, using the collective-pinning model of Larkin and Ovchivnikov within Ginzburg-Landau anisotropic theory. On the other hand the behavior found in the high-Tc material LSCO seems to fall naturally into a description which takes into account the possibility of phase transitions in the vortex lattice and the quasi-two-dimensional character of the superconductivity.
