Abstract

A method based on the analysis of fluctuational contributions to heat capacity and magnetic susceptibility is proposed for estimating the temperature derivatives of upper critical fields of high-temperature superconductors. The fluctuational contribution to the magnetic susceptibility of YBa2Cu3O7 is investigated experimentally and estimates of derivatives are obtained for this superconductor.
