We study the Ginzburg-Landau equations of super-conductivity describing the experimental setup of a Stiffnessometer device. In particular, we consider the nonlinear regime which reveals the impact of the superconductive critical current on the Stiffnessometer signal. As expected, we find that at high flux regimes, superconductivity is destroyed in parts of the superconductive regime. Surprisingly, however, we find that the superconductivity does not gradually decay to zero as flux increases, but rather the branch of solutions undergoes branch folding. We use asymptotic analysis to characterize the solutions at the numerous parameter regimes in which they exist. An immediate application of the work is an extension of the regime in which experimental measurements of the Stiffnessometer device can be interpreted.

A two-level system traversing a level anticrossing has a small probability to make a so-called Landau-Zener (LZ) transition between its energy bands, in deviation from simple adiabatic evolution. This effect takes on renewed relevance due to the obse rvation of quantum coherence in superconducting qubits (macroscopic Schrodinger cat devices). We report an observation of LZ transitions in an Al three-junction qubit coupled to a Nb resonant tank circuit.

Long-standing discrepancies within determinations of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter $kappa$ from supercritical field measurements on superconducting microspheres are reexamined. The discrepancy in tin is shown to result from differing methods of analy ses, whereas the discrepancy in indium is a consequence of significantly differing experimental results. The reanalyses however confirms the lower $kappa$ determinations to within experimental uncertainties.
Introducing nanoparticles into superconducting materials has emerged as an efficient route to enhance their current-carrying capability. We address the problem of optimizing vortex pinning landscape for randomly distributed metallic spherical inclusi ons using large-scale numerical simulations of time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. We found the size and density of particles for which the highest critical current is realized in a fixed magnetic field. For each particle size and magnetic field, the critical current reaches a maximum value at a certain particle density, which typically corresponds to 15-23% of the total volume being replaced by nonsuperconducting material. For fixed diameter, this optimal particle density increases with the magnetic field. Moreover, we found that the optimal particle diameter slowly decreases with the magnetic field from 4.5 to 2.5 coherence lengths at a given temperature. This result shows that pinning landscapes have to be designed for specific applications taking into account relevant magnetic field scales.
We present a short review of our studies of disorder influence upon Ginzburg - Landau expansion coefficients in Anderson - Hubbard model with attraction in the framework of the generalized DMFT+$Sigma$ approximation. A wide range of attractive potent ials $U$ is considered - from weak coupling limit, where superconductivity is described by BCS model, to the limit of very strong coupling, where superconducting transition is related to Bose - Einstein condensation (BEC) of compact Cooper pairs, which are formed at temperatures significantly higher than the temperature of superconducting transition, as well as the wide range of disorders - from weak to strong, when the system is in the vicinity of Anderson transition. For the same range of parameters we study in detail the temperature behavior of orbital and paramagnetic upper critical field $H_{c2}(T)$, which demonstrates the anomalies both due to the growth of attractive potential and the effects of strong disordering.
Since the concept of spin superconductor was proposed, all the related studies concentrate on spin-polarized case. Here, we generalize the study to spin-non-polarized case. The free energy of non-polarized spin superconductor is obtained, and the Gin zburg-Landau-type equations are derived by using the variational method. These Ginzburg-Landau-type equations can be reduced to the spin-polarized case when the spin direction is fixed. Moreover, the expressions of super linear and angular spin currents inside the superconductor are derived. We demonstrate that the electric field induced by super spin current is equal to the one induced by equivalent charge obtained from the second Ginzburg-Landau-type equation, which shows self-consistency of our theory. By applying these Ginzburg-Landau-type equations, the effect of electric field on the superconductor is also studied. These results will help us get a better understanding of the spin superconductor and the related topics such as Bose-Einstein condensate of magnons and spin superfluidity.
