| contents | Superconducting transition, defined as vanishing of the resistivity, under a magnetic field in a clean bulk type II superconductor with weak sample disorder is believed to be a reflection of freezing of the vortex liquid to a kind of vortex solids. This fundamental issue on superconductivity is examined in detail. Based on the Ginzburg-Landau fluctuation theory for a three-dimensional (3D) system and through a supplementary study in 2D case, we find that the resistivity in the weakly disordered 3D case vanishes in a nearly discontinuous way, reflecting growth of the Bragg peaks on approaching the vortex lattice melting transition. In contrast, such a sharp decrease of the resistivity does not clearly appear in the corresponding 2D case. The consequences of this difference in the vanishing behavior of the resistivity between the 2D and 3D systems are discussed in relation to available experimental facts. |
