Abstract

A scaling theory of vortex motion in Bose-glass superconductors with currents parallel to the common direction of the magnetic field and columnar defects is presented. Above the Bose-glass transition, the longitudinal dc resistivity ρ∥(T)∼(T−TBG)ν′z′ vanishes much faster than the corresponding transverse resistivity ρ⊥(T)∼(T−TBG)ν′(z′−2), thus reversing the usual anisotropy of electrical transport in the normal state of layered superconductors. In the presence of a current J at an angle θJ with the common field and columnar defect axis, the electric field angle θE approaches π2 as T→TBG+ Scaling also predicts the behavior of penetration depths for the ac currents as T→TBG− and implies a jump discontinuity at TBG in the superfluid density describing transport parallel to the columns.
