Abstract
We study flux penetration in a disordered type II superconductor by
simulations of interacting vortices, using a Monte-Carlo method for
vortex nucleation. Our results show that a detailed description of the
nucleation process yields a correction to the scaling laws usually
associated with flux front invasion. We propose a simple model to
account for these corrections. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights
