An extended magneto-optical (MO) analysis of samples cut from high-density pellets of MgB2 is reported. For sake of comparison some magnetic measurements and critical values are also shown. Notwithstanding the fact that the optical and SEM images exhibit grains with different shape and size, all the samples investigated by MO analysis (three specimens of different shape and size) enter as a whole into a critical state. The current at different temperatures and fields, in a phase zone accessible to MO are calculated by means of a quantitative analysis. The analysis, based on the inversion of the Biot-Savart law, corresponds to three regimes: under-critical, critical and over-critical, respectively. A possible qualitative interpretation of the absence of magnetic granularity is given in the framework of a critical state likely reached by a network of strongly coupled Josephson Junctions.
We present a detailed magneto-optical investigation of the magnetic flux penetration in polycrystalline MgB2 slabs made by direct reaction of B and Mg. Our results unambiguously indicate a uniform, Bean critical state magnetization behavior with almo
The transport critical current of a Niobium (Nb) thick film has been measured for a large range of magnetic field. Its value and variation are quantitatively described in the framework of the pinning of vortices due to boundary conditions at the roug
We have developed disk-shaped MgB2 bulk superconducting magnets (20, 30 mm in diameter, 10 mm in thickness) using the in-situ process from Mg and B powders and evaluated the temperature dependence of trapped magnetic field. A pair of two disc-shaped
Sintered samples of MgB2 were irradiated in a fission reactor. Defects in the bulk microstructure are produced during this process mainly by the 10B(n,a)7Li reaction while collisions of fast neutrons with the lattice atoms induce much less damage. Se
A trapped field of over 3 T has been measured at 17.5 K in a magnetised stack of two disc-shaped bulk MgB2 superconductors of diameter 25 mm and thickness 5.4 mm. The bulk MgB2 samples were fabricated by uniaxial hot pressing, which is a readily scal
