Description

A new way for studying the penetration of the magnetic field in RBaCuO-type superconductors is described. The measurement, by polarized neutron scattering, of the magnetic moment induced on the rare-earth by an external field gives direct information on the penetration of flux lines in the sample. The authors' results on a single-crystal of HoBa2Cu3O7 are discussed in connection with the Bean model. They give an estimation of the flux density gradient and of the bulk critical current
