摘要
It is widely accepted that the first-order vortex liquid-solid phase transition is associated with a crystalline solid phase and the second order transition with an amorphous one. The combination of a technique that determines the order of the transition with the visualization of the vortex structure has allowed the detection, for the first time, of a first-order liquid-solid transition without structural symmetry change. The results show that the quasi-long range order of the solid phase is not a necessary condition for the first-order phase transition to occur. This opens an important question on the microscopic origin of the liquid-solid phase transition in vortex matter.
