Notice that in this work the transformer contact configuration differs from that used in previous works (Ref. 11), where the vortex velocity correlation (Formula presented) is determined when it equals the thickness of the sample. The present method can also be used to measure vortex velocity correlation lengths of the isotropic low-temperature superconductors.
