Abstract

We present an improved analysis of the phase transitions in rare earth superconductor within Ginzburg-Landau theory. Our work is based on the systematic study of critical field and superconducting order parameters in the presence of localized magnet due to rare earth atom. We present the different phases that can occur and analyze the conditions of phase transition from the normal phase to the coexistence phase of anti-ferromagnetism and superconductivity. We calculate the critical field and Ginzburg-Landau parameters to show the coexistence property. We compare our theoretical results with existing experimental results.
