✦ Synopsis
We have studied the flux line dynamics and its anisotropy in a crystal YBa2Cu30 x as a function of the magnetic field and the oxygen content; 0.5 T<H< 7 T, x=6.9 and 6.6. At low temperature, the observed behavior is in agreement with a pinned flux line lattice. A residual dissipation appears depending both on x and H. The irreversibility line was also investigated: for H± c, the line remains steep and close to Tc whereas for HFIc, it moves apart in particular as x is decreased with Hzc ( 1 -(T/T~) )3/2. These results are interpreted within the model of thermally activated flux flow.

Magnetic-flux dynamics in a high-quality single crystal of YBa2Cu307\_ ~ has been studied with a swinging-beam experiment. At low temperature the flux is pinned and the response is determined by the magnetization; this shows an anisotropy which agrees with that expected from demagnetizing factors fo
Transport measurements in the mixed state of oxygen-deficient YBa2Cu30 7\_ 8 single crystals using the flux transformer configuration show that the flux liquid changes with increasing anisotropy from strongly correlated to uncorrelated in the field direction. For intermediate coupling, the current i
