Characteristic low-field magnetic response of granular superconductors

The low-field magnetic response of a physical system consisting of eight superconducting spherical grains in a cubic arrangement is studied by means of a three-dimensional Josephson junction network. The lower threshold field for this system is numerically studied as a function of the inclination of...

Description
Summary:The low-field magnetic response of a physical system consisting of eight superconducting spherical grains in a cubic arrangement is studied by means of a three-dimensional Josephson junction network. The lower threshold field for this system is numerically studied as a function of the inclination of the externally applied magnetic field H → with respect to the z-axis.
