چکیده

We use Josephson plasma resonance (JPR) and DC torque magnetization measurements to investigate the vortex structure and dynamics in the layered organic superconductor -(ET) Cu(NCS) . JPR studies probe the AC response of this extreme type-II superconductor for currents driven along the low conductivity axis. An observed crossover in the magnetic "eld and temperature dependence of the JPR frequency, in close proximity to the irreversibility line, is attributed either to a melting or a depinning transition in the quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) vortex structure. Angle and temperature dependent magnetization studies reveal the rich dynamical process by which magnetic #ux enters this highly anisotropic superconductor, as well as information on the structure of the vortices once inside. At extremely low temperatures (1(100mK), the sudden cessation of avalanching #ux jumps above an angleand temperature-dependent critical "eld B*( ,1), is indicative of Q2D vortex lattice melting. Thus, using these two very di!erent techniques, we are able to probe the vortex phase diagram over a wide temperature and magnetic "eld range. 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Admission Effects on the Flow Behaviour of a Double Entry Turbocharger Turbine

Dual turbocharger turbine is fed by an unequal out-of-phase mass flow charge almost all the time which have significant effects on its performance parameters and flow phenomena which are not well known. Besides fully understanding the flow behavior in the radial turbine suffers from lack of detailed information about the secondary flows. This article studies the secondary flow structure within ...
