Abstract

The long-time asymptotics of the current (magnetization) relaxation in high-temperature superconductors is studied within the framework of collective creep theory. The inverse normalized relaxation rate S−1 depends linearly on Tln(t/τ0). The attempt time τ0 is shown to be much longer than a ‘‘microscopic’’ time scale and is strongly size and jc dependent.
