Upper Limit Transverse Voltage Calculations

L. I. Glazman's paper(1) on transverse voltage in thin films near their superconducting transition temperature predicted that for wide films (w $\gg$ $\lambda$), the upper limit for current at which transverse voltage would appear is temperature independent. Using a Runge-Kutta algorithim and the complete equations for vortex/anti-vortex interactions the upper limit for the thin niobium films were calculated for several temperatures, and how these compare to Glazman's model and experimental results on the same films will be discussed.
