Force Free Configurations of Vortices in High Temperature Superconductors near the Melting Transition

Abstract

We study force-free configurations of Abrikosov flux lines in the line-liquid and linecrystal limit, near the melting transition at Hm. We show that the condition for zero force configurations can be solved by appealing to the structure of chiral liquid crystalline phases
