Abstract

Recent measurements of the dissipation in cuprate superconductors in a magnetic field have been interpreted as providing evidence for the presence of new phases in type II superconductors: flux liquids or flux glasses. We suggest that a more conventional interpretation in terms of the electrodynamics of vortices can adequately account for all the observations. Based on this model, we propose a magnetic phase diagram.
