type-II superconductors. There are significant gaps in our understanding of this unusual …

Femtosecond time-resolved X-ray diffraction from laser-heated organic films

C Rischel, A Rousse, I Uschmann, PA Albouy… - Nature, 1997 - nature.com
The extension of time-resolved X-ray diffraction to the subpicosecond domain is an
important challenge, as the nature of chemical reactions and phase transitions is determined …

Vortex-glass phases in type-II superconductors

T Nattermann, S Scheidl - Advances in Physics, 2000 - Taylor & Francis
A review is given on the theory of vortex-glass phases in impure type-II superconductors in
an external field. We begin with a brief discussion of the effects of thermal fluctuations on the …

Massive Feynman diagrams and inverse binomial sums

AI Davydychev, MY Kalmykov - Nuclear Physics B, 2004 - Elsevier
When calculating higher terms of the ɛ-expansion of massive Feynman diagrams, one
needs to evaluate particular cases of multiple inverse binomial sums. These sums are …

Ginzburg-Landau theory of type II superconductors in magnetic field

B Rosenstein, D Li - Reviews of modern physics, 2010 - APS
Thermodynamics of type II superconductors in electromagnetic field based on the Ginzburg-
Landau theory is presented. The Abrikosov flux lattice solution is derived using an …

Local magnetic probes of superconductors

SJ Bending - Advances in Physics, 1999 - Taylor & Francis
Investigations of the magnetic properties of high temperature superconductors (HTSs) have
revealed the existence of striking new vortex phenomena due, in part, to their strong …

Abrupt changes in early Holocene tropical sea surface temperature derived from coral records

JW Beck, J Récy, F Taylor, RL Edwards, G Cabioch - Nature, 1997 - nature.com
For many high-latitude regions of the globe, it is now clear that the transition to modern
climate following the Last Glacial Maximum was punctuated by a number of rapid and …

High field phase diagram of cuprates derived from the Nernst effect

Y Wang, NP Ong, ZA Xu, T Kakeshita, S Uchida… - Physical review …, 2002 - APS
Measurements of the Nernst signal in the vortex-liquid state of the cuprates to high fields (33
T) reveal that vorticity extends to very high fields even close to the zero-field critical …

Instabilities and disorder-driven first-order transition of the vortex lattice

Y Paltiel, E Zeldov, Y Myasoedov, ML Rappaport… - Physical review …, 2000 - APS
Transport studies in a Corbino disk suggest that the Bragg glass phase undergoes a first-
order transition into a disordered solid. This transition shows sharp reentrant behavior at low …
