Abstract

Local and global magnetic relaxation measurements near the order-disorder vortex phase transition in Bi2 Sr2 Ca Cu2 O8+δ reveal unusual phenomena: The local relaxation accelerates with time, and the global relaxation rate decreases with temperature and magnetic field. These peculiarities are shown to be a result of annealing of transient disordered vortex states, coexisting with a quasi-ordered vortex phase near the order-disorder vortex phase transition.
