Results of investigations on small hysteresis loops of yttrium-based high temperature ceramical compounds are presented. A proposed theoretical model describing the magnetic induction profile in a sample has been used for numerical approximation of the experimental data. The results of this fitting procedure then allow one to obtain detailed information on the pinning force's magnetic field dependence as well as the critical current of ceramical compounds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
