Abstract

The complex ac susceptibility χ=χ′−jχ″ of a melt-textured YBa2Cu3Ox ring closed by a strong-coupling contact is measured after zero-field cooling to 77K as a function of the ac field amplitude Hm and frequency f. The resulting χ(Hm,f) is similar to that derived from a power-law relation between the local current density and electric field but with maximum χ″(Hm) increasing steadily with increasing f, which is explained by the creep of Abrikosov-Josephson vortices along the contact driven by the London force of supercurrents and the Lorentz force of the induced normal currents.
