Mass of Abrikosov vortex in high-temperature superconductor YBa $$_2$$ 2 Cu $$_3$$ 3 O $$_{7-\delta }$$ 7 - δ
Abstract For more than four decades, mass of Abrikosov vortices defied experimental observations. We demonstrate a method of its detection in high-temperature superconductors. Similarly to electrons, fluxons circulate in the direction given by the magnetic field, causing circular dichroism. We repor...
