✦ Synopsis

Strong experimental evidence of the important role of the reduced dimensionality of the vortices in the c direction in BSCCO ~2 2 1 2) crystals is provided. As a result of this, it is shown that the long-range order of the vortex in the c direction is destroyed by the disorder induced by thermal fluctuations as well as by the nonuniform distribution of the pancake vortices in low-temperature ZFC experiments.
