Experimental determination of the dipolar field in Mn12-acetate
S. McHugh, R. Jaafar, M. P. Sarachik +5
Crystals of the molecular magnet Mn12-acetate are known to contain a small fraction of low- symmetry (minor) species with a small anisotropy barrier against spin reversal. The lowe…
Mechanics of Individual, Isolated Vortices in a Cuprate Superconductor
Ophir M. Auslaender, Lan Luan, Eric W. J. Straver +7
Superconductors often contain quantized microscopic whirlpools of electrons, called vortices, that can be modeled as one-dimensional elastic objects. Vortices are a diverse playgro…
Multiple Changes of Order of the Vortex Melting Transition in BSCCO with Dilute Columnar Defects
Tal Verdene, Haim Beidenkopf, Yuri Myasoedov +4
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-ord…
