Magnetic flux can penetrate a type-II superconductor in the form of Abrikosov vortices (also
called flux lines, flux tubes, or fluxons) each carrying a quantum of magnetic flux phi 0= h/2e …

Finite-time singularities—local divergences in the amplitude or gradient of a physical
observable at a particular time—occur in a diverse range of physical systems. Examples …

We study periodic structures, such as vortex lattices, moving in a random pinning potential
under the action of an external driving force. As predicted in T. Giamarchi and P. Le Doussal …

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 …

The magnetic flux line lattice in type II superconductors serves as a useful system in which to
study condensed matter flow, as its dynamic properties are tunable. Recent studies have …

Dynamics of a flux-line lattice (FLL) has been studied in the anisotropic superconductor 2H-
NbSe2, where pinning is extremely weak (critical current/depairing current∼ 10− 6), the …

We study driven vortex lattices in superconducting thin films. Above the critical force F c we
find two dynamical phase transitions at F p and F t, which could be observed in …

We have investigated the effects of an applied current on the vortex dynamics in thin films of
amorphous superconducting M o 77 G e 23. At high currents, we see evidence of an …

Using large-scale simulations on parallel processors, we analyze in detail the dynamical
behavior of superconducting vortices undergoing avalanches. In particular, we quantify the …

We present simulations of vortex dynamics in amorphous two-dimensional thin film
superconductors, using a new exact method to evaluate long-range interactions between …
