Testing the Kibble-Zurek Scenario with Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions
Abstract
In parallel with Kibble's description of the onset of phase transitions in the early universe, Zurek has provided a simple picture for the onset of phase transitions in condensed matter systems, strongly supported by agreement with experiments in He3. In this letter we show how experiments with annular Josephson tunnel Junctions can and do provide further support for this scenario.
