Abstract
Field dependence of intensity of radio-frequency acoustic powder echoes (ph onon echoes) is studied for powdered samples of niobium at low temperatures . Both echoes inherent to the superconducting state of niobium and echoes i n the normal state are successively observed with increasing applied field across the critical field H-C2, proving the validity of our model presented before.
