The static critical current is the minimal current for which a non-zero resistance first appears. This occurs when the Lorenz force acting on the Abrikosov vortex (described in the text) is strong enough to overcome the pinning energy. The dynamic critical current is defined as the current at which the resistance changes dramatically to its normal-state value. This is related to a concerted movement of the vortex lattice.
