“…It is important to note that θ th is always positive (e > 0) while θ H may become negative (see section 4.2). As for the case where the thermal angle is much larger, it is interesting to note that in [65,66] an alternative mechanism involving vortex-antivortex pairs was introduced where the following fact plays a crucial role: whereas the Lorentz force depends on vorticity, the thermal force acts in the same direction for both vortices and antivortices. We refer the reader to the original paper for details.…”

In the first part of this article we review the theory of flux motion in conventional superconductors. We then describe the recent developments in the theory of vortex motion in the mixed state of high-T c superconductors. In particular, a unified theory of vortex motion in the presence of thermal fluctuations and pinning centres is introduced in detail. Applications of this theory are presented to account for such experimentally observed phenomena as the scaling behaviour, sign reversal of the Hall resistivity and properties of the complex resistivity. Moreover, theoretical investigations on the thermomagnetic effects such as the Nernst and Seebeck effects, and the Ettinghausen effect are also addressed. Such an analysis using the single-vortex-motion model could provide an understanding of many physical properties of high-T c superconductors.
