Description

The time decay of the zero field cooled magnetization was investigated for a Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x single crystal (Tc=85K) at different temperatures. From the low temperature data, interpreted with a thermally activated flux creep model, an average pinning energy is derived for different magnetic fields applied parallel to the c axis (e.g. Uo=2.4 10-3 eV for H=1 kOe).
