Abstract:
We present simulations of the dynamic critical state for a 2D superconductor with strong pinning centers, corresponding to a matching field twice the applied magnetic field. The sharp crossover between the plastic regime, at low current density and temperature, and the fluid flow regime for flux motion is characterized by the activation energy for flux motion and the transverse diffusion of the vortices trajectory.
