Local and global superconductivity in bismuth

We performed magnetization M(H,T) and magnetoresistance R(T,H) measurements on powdered (grain size ~ 149 μm) as well as highly oriented rhombohedral (A7) bismuth (Bi) samples consisting of single crystalline blocks of size ~ 1×1 mm in the plane perpendicular to the trigonal c axis. The obtained res...
