Vortex Flow and Transverse Flux Screening at the Bose Glass Transition
A. W. Smith, H. M. Jaeger, T. F. Rosenbaum +3
We investigate the vortex phase diagram in untwinned YBaCuO single crystals with columnar defects. These randomly distributed defects, produced by heavy ion irradiation, are expect…

Electrostatically-Driven Granular Media: Phase Transitions and Coarsening
I. S. Aranson, D. Blair, V. A. Kalatsky +4
We report the experimental and theoretical study of electrostatically driven granular material. We show that the charged granular medium undergoes a hysteretic first order phase tr…
