“…The appeal and advantage of superconducting systems is that the size and number of the particles can be tuned by changing the temperature and the magnetic field, respectively. In addition, the flexibility in the design and fabrication of artificial vortex traps in superconducting films has stimulated, during the past decade, an in-depth investigation of the interplay between pinning landscape and vortex pattern symmetry [16], influence of the pinning center's size and period [17][18][19][20], vortex rectification on a kagome-like array [21], competition between ordered and disordered defects [22][23][24], or pinning energy dispersion [25,26], to name a few.…”
