Abstract:
Multiterminal transport measurements indicating a strongly correlated vortex liquid above the first order melting transition in untwinned YBa2Cu3O(7--delta) single crystals are presented. The correlation is found to be surprisingly stable for different weak variations of point disorder. We investigate the differences between intervortex and intravortex correlations in different contact geometries. The results are in agreement with the local conductivity model, with zero resistivity along straight vortex line segments.

Molecular Solids
Molecular crystalline solids, such as ice, sucrose (table sugar), and iodine, are solids that are composed of neutral molecules as their constituent units. These molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, or hydrogen bonds, which...
