Gaussianity revisited: Exploring the Kibble-Zurek mechanism with superconducting rings
D. J. Weir, R. Monaco, V. P. Koshelets +2
In this paper we use spontaneous flux production in annular superconductors to shed light on the Kibble-Zurek scenario. In particular, we examine the effects of finite size and ext…

Defect formation in superconducting rings: external fields and finite-size effects
D. J. Weir, R. Monaco, R. J. Rivers
Consistent with the predictions of Kibble and Zurek, scaling behaviour has been seen in the production of fluxoids during temperature quenches of superconducting rings. However, de…

Fluxoid formation: size effects and non-equilibrium universality
David J. Weir, Ray J. Rivers
Simple causal arguments put forward by Kibble and Zurek suggest that the scaling behaviour of condensed matter at continuous transitions is related to the familiar universality cla…
