regimes

N. Pompeo
The vortex dynamics of uniaxial anisotropic superconductors in magnetic fields applied with arbitrary orientation is theoretically studied. Focus is on the model for electrical transport experiments in the linear regime. Relevant vortex parameters, like the viscous drag, the vortex mobility and pinning constant (with point pins), together with the flux flow and Campbell resistivities, are derived in tensor form, in the very different free flux flow and pinned Campbell regimes. The applicability to the various tensor quantities of the well-known scaling laws for the angular dependence on the field orientation is commented. Moreover, it is shown that the experiments do not generally yield the intrinsic values of the anisotropic viscosity and pinning constant. Explicit expressions relating measured and intrinsic quantities are given.
