Abstract
The isothermal remanent magnetization was measured on a twinned YBa2Cu 3O7-delta crystal as a function of magnetic field, temperature and ang le between the applied magnetic field and the c axis of the crystal. T he angular dependence of the field of first vortex penetration as well as the orientation of the isothermal remanent magnetization vector, d etermined from the data, are different at different temperatures. Our results point to a crossover between two different pinning mechanisms at a certain temperature.
