Principales métodos:
- Se realizaron mediciones de dispersión de neutrones.
- El factor de forma de la red de vórtice se midió en función del campo magnético.
- Los resultados experimentales se compararon con las predicciones teóricas.
Principales resultados:
- Se observó que el factor de forma de red de vórtice en CeCoIn5 aumentaba con el aumento del campo magnético.
- Esta dependencia de campo es contraria a las predicciones de la teoría estándar de Abrikosov-Ginzburg-Landau.
- Se detectó un comportamiento anómalo en el factor de forma.
Conclusiones:
- La dependencia anómala de campo observada se atribuye a los efectos paramagnéticos de Pauli cerca de núcleos de vórtice.
- La proximidad del estado superconductor a un punto crítico cuántico se propone como otro factor contribuyente.
- Estos hallazgos resaltan las limitaciones de las teorías convencionales para ciertos superconductores no convencionales.

Electric Field Inside a Conductor
When a conductor is placed in an external electric field, the free charges in the conductor redistribute and very quickly reach electrostatic equilibrium. The resulting charge distribution and its electric field have many interesting properties, which can be investigated with the help of Gauss's law.
Suppose a piece of metal is placed near a positive charge. The free electrons in the metal are attracted to the external positive charge and migrate freely toward that region. This region then has...

Magnetic Field Lines
The representation of magnetic fields by magnetic field lines is very useful in visualizing the strength and direction of the magnetic field. Each of the magnetic field lines forms a closed loop. The field lines emerge from the north pole (N), loop around to the south pole (S), and continue through the bar magnet back to the north pole.
Magnetic field lines follow several hard-and-fast rules:

Magnetic Field Of A Current Loop
Consider a circular loop with a radius a, that carries a current I. The magnetic field due to the current at an arbitrary point P along the axis of the loop can be calculated using the Biot-Savart law.
Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
A stationary charge creates and interacts with the electric field, while a moving charge creates a magnetic field.
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...

Electric Field of Parallel Conducting Plates
Gauss' law relates the electric flux through a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface. Gauss's law can be applied to find the electric field and the charge enclosed in a region depending on its charge distribution.
Consider a cross-section of a thin, infinite conducting plate having a positive charge. For such a large thin plate, as the thickness of the plate tends to zero, the positive charges lie on the plate's two large faces. Without an external electric field, the...

Magnetostatic Boundary Conditions
An electric field suffers a discontinuity at a surface charge. Similarly, a magnetic field is discontinuous at a surface current. The perpendicular component of a magnetic field is continuous across the interface of two magnetic mediums. In contrast, its parallel component, perpendicular to the current, is discontinuous by the amount equal to the product of the vacuum permeability and the surface current. Like the scalar potential in electrostatics, the vector potential is also continuous...
