Explosive instability is found for the first time to exist in the final stage of the evolution of
thermomagnetic disturbances in type-II superconductors. The new mechanism—nonlinear of …

The non-linear dynamics of the critical state in hard superconductors has been studied
taking into account the effect of dispersion and dissipation. Stationary thermomagnetic shock …

Novel instability representing an avalanch-like penetration of the magnetic flux into
superconductor is explained in terms of thermomagnetic shock wave propagation. It is …

The thermomagnetic instability of the critical state in superconductors is analysed with an
account of the dissipation and dispersion. The possibility of the existence of a nonlinear …

The influence of thermomagnetic (Ettingshausen and Nernst) effects on the stability and
dynamics of the critical state in hard superconductors has been considered. Both the criteria …

The stability of superconducting films with respect to oscillatory precursor modes for
thermomagnetic avalanches is investigated theoretically. The results for the onset threshold …

This review treats magnetic instabilities in hard and combined Type II superconductors. We
give and discuss in detail the criteria for stability of the critical state with respect to magnetic …

Instability ofexplosion'type in a superconductor carrying a transport current is studied
theoretically. Such instability arises if there is no stable normal state of the superconductor …

The rapid penetration of magnetic flux into a Meissner phase of the type-II superconductor is
studied analytically and numerically. A sharp shock wave front of the magnetic induction is …

The limited thermomagnetic instabilities in the critical state have been investigated in hard
superconductors under an incomplete penetration of the magnetic flux into the sample and …
