Results of molecular dynamics simulations of driven vortices in superconductors with a two-fold anisotropy in the vortex-vortex interaction was published in the New Journal of Physics.
The MD simulations were performed by Ted Roe and the work was done in collaboration with Drs. Cynthia and Charles Reichhardt at Los Alamos Natl. Lab.

Our studies of the effects of carbon and manganese doping on the two-gap superconducting state in MgB2 through studies of the vortex lattice were published in the Journal of Applied Crystallography.
This work was carried out in collaboration with Soham Manni and the Canfield group at Iowa State University/Ames Laboratory.

Our SANS studies how the VL in UPt3 undergoes a disordering due to neutron beam induced fission in the sample were published in Phys. Rev. B.
The disordering is reversible and a well-ordered VL can be achieved by a vortex "shaking" process.

Further results of our SANS studies of UPt3 were published in Front. Electron. Mater. in special research topic on "New Heavy fermion Superconductors".
Here we mapped the vortex lattice phase diagram in the B phase as a function of field and temperature, demonstrating the influence of the symmetry breaking field.

Our tired and trusted Solis Mater 5000 finally retired after 19 years of faithful service.
They was replaced by Gaggia Classic who will hopefully have an equally long and successful tenure in our group.

In this video our collaborator Jon White discusses the merits of the Paul Scherrer Institute SANS-I instrument for studies of vortices and skyrmions.
The video features an appearance by our very own Allan Leishman at the 1:35 mark.
