The relaxation curves show a nearly perfect linear ln(t) behavior. The temperature dependence of the normalized relaxation rate, R = Id (M /M0)/dln(t)I, was studied for two applied magnetic fields. With the lower applied field (H.= 3 kOe), a temperature-independent R is found below 2.1 K and ex­plained in terms of quantum tunneling of vortices. As the applied field increases (H. = 10 kOe), the tran­sition from the thermal to the quantum regime is not found in the experimentally accessible temperature range above 1.85 K. The field dependence of R at 2.8 K is studied in order to analyze the dimensionality of the flux-line lattice.6 p.application/pdfeng(c) The American Physical Society, 1995SuperconductivitatSuperconductivityinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article132558info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
