Abstract

The mixed state of two-band II-superconductor is analyzed by the multi-symplectic method. As to the Ginzburg-Landau equation depending on time that describes the mixed state of two-band II-superconductor, the multi-symplectic formulations with several conservation laws: a multi-symplectic conservation law, an energy conservation law, as well as a momentum conservation law, are presented firstly; then an eighteen points scheme is constructed to simulate the multi-symplectic partial differential equations (PDEs) that are derived from the Ginzburg-Landau equation; finally, based on the simulation results, the volt-ampere characteristic curves are obtained, as well as the relationships between the temperature and resistivity of a suppositional two-band II-superconductor model under different magnetic intensities. From the results of the numerical experiments, it is concluded that the notable property of the mixed state of the two-band II-superconductor is that: The transformation temperature decreases and the resistivity π increases rapidly with the increase of the magnetic intensity B. In addition, the simulation results show that the multi-symplectic method has two remarkable advantages: high accuracy and excellent long-time numerical behavior.
