Description

Temperature dependence of the magnetization M(T) of two-band superconductors is studied in the vicinity of upper critical field Hc2 by using a two-band Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory. It is shown that magnetization M(T) has a nonlinear character due to positive curvature of upper critical field Hc2(T) and temperature dependence of effective Ginzburg-Landau parameter varkappaeff(T). The results are shown to be in qualitative agreement with experimental data for the superconducting magnesium diboride, MgB2.
