Intervortex forces in competing-order superconductors
arXiv:2004.13171 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.103.014514
Abstract
The standard Ginzburg-Landau model of competing-order superconductors is studied. It is observed that this model possesses two distinct species of vortex, and consequently has two distinct integer valued topological charges. A simple point particle model of long range forces between (anti)vortices of any species is developed and compared with numerical simulations of the full field theory, excellent agreement being found. Some of the results are quite counterintuitive. For example, a parameter regime exists where vortices of one species repel both vortices and antivortices of the other.
