The magnetic states of multi-junction superconducting quantum interference device containing 2N identical conventional Josephson junctions are studied by means of a perturbation analysis of the non-linear first-order ordinary differential equations governing the dynamics of the Josephson...

We show that there is a link between the Kuramoto paradigm and another system of synchronized oscillators, namely an electrical power distribution grid of generators and consumers. The purpose of this work is to show both the formal analogy and some practical consequences. The mapping can be...

We study chaos synchronization in two resistive-capacitive-inductive-shunted (RCL-shunted) Josephson junctions (RCLSJJs) by using a common chaos driving. The numerical simulations confirm that the synchronization of two RCLSJJs can be achieved with a suitable driving intensity when the maximum...

Fluxon transmission through several impurities of different strength and type (i.e., microshorts and microresistors), placed in a long Josephson junction is investigated. Retrapping current on the impurities is computed as a function of the distance between them, their amplitudes and the...
