Title: Vortex melting and the liquid state in YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub x}.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:11110

The experimental vortex phase diagram of YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub x} is reviewed, with emphasis on first order vortex melting, the upper and lower critical points on the melting line, and the effect of disorder arising from twin boundary and point defect pinning.
