... Direct observation of the vortex structure in high- T c superconductors in tilted magnetic fields. Abstract: . A high-resolution Bitter technique has been used to observe an effect of tilting the external magnetic field on the flux line lattice (FLL) in Tl 2 Ba 2 CaCu 2 O 8+x single crystals. ... The reason is believed to be that the formation of the equilibrium vortex state (vortex chains) was prevented by strong pinning, revealed for our crystals by the M(t) curves. ...
