Snapshots on Vortex Dynamics

Salient features of vortex dynamics in super media are summarized. Recent examples are: the demonstration of prominent role of topology in vortex dynamics; the solution to the Hall anomaly which once…

Two years later--lessons from vortex dynamics in super media

Two years ago the reasons for resistance to the fundamental vortex dynamics in super media emerged in 1990's were analyzed (cond-mat/0407007). Five "mistakes" were identified to explain this…

Spectral Flow, the Magnus Force, and the Josephson-Anderson Relation

A scenario to the anomalous Hall effect in the mixed state of superconductors

We argue that the motion of vacancies in a pinned vortex lattice may dominate the contribution to the Hall effect in an appropriate parameter regime for a superconductor. Based on this consideration…

It is shown that the en route vortex velocity dependent part of the Magnus force in a Josephson junction array is effectively zero, and the Hall effect in the classical limit is predicted, and rich and complex Hall behaviors analogous to the Thouless-Kohmoto-Nightingale-den Nijs effect are found in the quantum regime.

Berry's phase and the Magnus force for a vortex line in a superconductor.

It is found that there is no influence of the disorder and the electromagnetic field on the existence of the Magnus force in the superconducting state, and its magnitude is proportional to the superfluid electron density.

Nernst effect, seebeck effect, and vortex dynamics in the mixed state of superconductors

We demonstrate that in the presence of pinning a simple relation exists between Nernst and Seebeck coefficients and the resistivity tensor, based on the vortex equation of motion and the two-fluid…

Observation of the Transverse Force on Moving Vortices in YBCO Films

We have designed a mechanical experiment to measure the total transverse force on moving vortices in a type II superconductor. The vortices are driven into motion by the vibration of a magnet above a…

Origin of Hall Anomaly in the Mixed State

There has been a corporative absence of understanding of Hall anomaly data in the mixed state in terms of vortex many-body effect and pinning, because of the dominant theoretical influence. Now…

Transverse force on a quantized vortex in a superfluid.

An exact expression for the total nondissipative transverse force acting on a quantized vortex moving in a uniform background is derived and it is concluded that contributions of the localized core states do not change this force.

The motion of flux lines in type II superconductors

Abstract The motion of a flux line in a clean superconductor of extreme type II (λ≫ζ) at zero temperature is discussed in detail. It is shown that the vortex core is subject to a Magnus force…

The role of the Josephson-Anderson equation in superfluid helium

This article explains how a simple equation describing the time evolution of a superfluid’s quantum phase can be used as a powerful tool to rapidly deduce exact magnitudes of physical observables in…
