Zd. Hao, TRANSVERSE MAGNETIZATION, TORQUE, AND ANISOTROPY IN ANISOTROPIC TYPE-II SUPERCONDUCTORS IN THE MIXED-STATE, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 48(22), 1993, pp. 16822-16825
The angular dependences of the transverse magnetization and torque in
an anisotropic type-II superconductor in the mixed state are studied.
Two simple formulas for obtaining the anisotropy ratio from the transv
erse magnetization measurements are derived by using the usual anisotr
opic Ginzburg-Landau theory. Possible generalization of the theory to
the case of quasi-two-dimensional layered superconductors is also cons
idered.
