โฆ Synopsis
Magnet needles floating vertically in cupric sulphate solution serve as a mode/of flux tubes. A Lorentz force is exerted on the needles by passing a current through the solution. Pinning barriers, analogous to grain boundaries in thin films, are provided by crossmagnetized saw blades clamped ยฝ in above the solution. An array of magnet needles, originally compressed on the left, is released and the resulting motion and velocity distribution are investigated. The model compares well with experiments using thin film superconductors.

Radiative damping of waves is important in the upper photosphere. It is thus of interest to examine the effect of radiative relaxation on the propagation of waves in an intense magnetic flux tube embedded in a uniform atmosphere. Assuming Newton's law of cooling, it is shown that the radiative energ
Greenwich data for proper motions of the components of sunspot groups are analysed. We have found that only 4}'0 of the 408 examined sunspot groups do not show systematic proper motions of the components at the beginning of their life.

The magnetic flux penetrating a superconductor is represented as a set of flux lines, interacting with each other through a realistic potential derived from Ginzburg-Landau theory and with a random pinning potential. The effects of temperature are simulated by a stochastic Langevin force. Initial ca
