Short Time

We study the behaviour of a superconductor in a weak static gravitational field for temperatures slightly greater than its transition temperature (fluctuation regime). Making use of the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau equations, we find a possible short time alteration of the static gravitational field in the vicinity of the superconductor, providing also a qualitative behaviour in the weak field condition. Finally, we compare the behaviour of various superconducting materials, investigating which parameters could enhance the gravitational field alteration.

Favorable Conditions

We calculate the possible interaction between a superconductor and the static Earth’s gravitational fields, making use of the gravito-Maxwell formalism combined with the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau theory. We try to estimate which are the most favorable conditions to enhance the effect, optimizing the superconductor parameters characterizing the chosen sample. We also give a qualitative comparison of the behavior of high–Tc and classical low–Tc superconductors with respect to the gravity/superfluid interplay.

Ginzburg Landau Equations

Based on the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau equations, we study numerically the vortex configuration and motion in mesoscopic superconducting cylinders. We find that the effects of the geometric symmetry of the system and the noncircular multiply-connected boundaries can significantly influence the steady vortex states and the vortex matter moving. For the square cylindrical loops, the vortices can enter the superconducting region in multiples of 2 and the vortex configuration exhibits the axial symmetry along the square diagonal. Moreover, the vortex dynamics behavior exhibits more complications due to the existed centered hole, which can lead to the vortex entering from different edges and exiting into the hole at the phase transitions.
