Anomalous magnetic hysteresis in the microwave surface resistance of MgB 2 superconductor
نویسنده
چکیده
We report experimental results of the field-induced variations of the microwave surface resistance in samples of MgB2, produced by different methods. By sweeping the DC magnetic field at increasing and decreasing values, we have detected a magnetic hysteresis that can be ascribed to the different magnetic induction, due to the critical state of the fluxon lattice. The hysteresis observed in the bulk samples has an unusual shape, which cannot be justified in the framework of the critical-state models.

Field - induced suppression of the π - band superconductivity and magnetic hysteresis in the microwave surface resistance of MgB 2 at temperatures near
We report on the magnetic-field-induced variations of the microwave surface resistance, Rs, in a polycrystalline MgB2 sample, at different values of temperature. We have detected a magnetic hysteresis in Rs, which exhibits an unexpected plateau on decreasing the DC magnetic field below a certain value. In particular, at temperatures near Tc the hysteresis manifests itself only through the prese...
متن کاملMicrowave response of a cylindrical cavity made of bulk MgB 2 superconductor
We report on the microwave properties of a resonant cylindrical cavity made of bulk MgB2 superconductor, produced by the reactive liquid Mg infiltration process. The frequency response of the cavity has been measured in the range 5÷ 13 GHz. Among the various modes, the TE011, resonating at 9.79 GHz, exhibits the highest quality factor. For this mode, we have determined the temperature dependenc...

The magnetic-field-induced variations of the microwave surface resistance, Rs, have been investigated in ceramic Mg1−x(LiAl)xB2, with x in the range 0.1 ÷ 0.4. The measurements have been performed on increasing and decreasing the DC magnetic field, H0, at fixed temperatures. At low temperatures, we have observed a magnetic hysteresis in the Rs(H0) curves in all the investigated samples. On incr...
