Abstract
The magnetic torque of oriented bulk specimen of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ by the shock-loading method was measured under magnetic fields up to 8 kOe in the temperature range from 4.2 to 100 K. The torque amplitude of the shocked specimen was much larger than that of the as-grown bulk specimen measured as a reference. The angular dependence of the torque was reproduced by assuming the Gauss-type distribution for the crystalline orientation. It became clear that the magnetic torque of the shocked specimen showed the high degree of crystalline orientation in which the c-axis is perpendicular to the pellet disk plane and that the flux pinning perpendicular to the pellet disk plane was enhanced by shock-loading.
