Summary

A COMPARISON OF THE LOW MAGNETIC FIELD PROPERTIES OF SINTERED: 1263 K (990 DEG C), AND PARTIALLY MELTED SAMPLES: 1323 K (1050 DEG C) HAS BEEN PERFORMED. CHANGES IN THE MICRO-STRUCTURE PRODUCED BY RECRYSTALLIZATION FROM THE MELT RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN FLUX PINNING AT 77 K. LOW FREQUENCY (10-100 HERTZ), LOW-ALTERNATING CURRENT MAGNETIC FIELD (0.01-9.0 OERSTEDS) ALTERNATING CURRENT SUSCEPTIBILITY DATA SHOW THAT GROSS CHANGES IN THE ALTERNATING CURRENT LOSS COMPONENT ACCOMPANIES THE OBSERVED CHANGES IN MICROSTRUCTURE. PARTICULAR ATTENTION IS GIVEN TO PUBLISHED INTERPRETATIONS OF THE IN-PHASE OR LOSS COMPONENT OF THE ALTERNATING CURRENT MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY AND TO THE POSSIBLE ROLES WHICH MINORITY PHASES AND SAMPLE INHOMOGENEITIES MAY PLAY IN DETERMINING THE DETAILED ALTERNATING CURRENT RESPONSES.
