Abstract

The magnetic penetration depth λ(T,H,j) was measured in the presence of a slowly relaxing supercurrent j. In single crystal Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 below approximately 25 K, λ(T,H,j) is strongly hysteretic. We propose that the irreversibility arises from a shift of the vortex position within its pinning well as j changes. The Campbell length depends upon the ratio j/jc where jc is the critical current defined through the Labusch parameter. Similar effects were observed in other cuprates and in an organic superconductor.
