Dendrite Propagation Velocity in Type-II Superconductors — •Bernd-Uwe Runge1, Björn Biehler1, Roman Mints2, and Paul Leiderer1 — 1University of Konstanz, Germany — 2Tel-Aviv University, Israel
We use the Faraday effect in combination with ultra-short fs-laser pulses to investigate the flux dynamics in type-II superconductors upon sudden heating. Under certain conditions a dendritic instability develops in those systems. The penetration velocity is measured using a pump-probe technique. A theory is proposed explaining the observed velocities. The theory is based on experimental observations and treats the dendrite as a moving flux jump instability. We can explain the observed fast and the well distinct slow regimes of flux penetration [1].
