Abstract

The maxinmm number of vortex lines at a given angular velocity ω is obtained during deceleration when vortices annihilate at the wall of the container. The width of the vortex-free region in the decelerated state has been measured by cw NMR for vortex lines with singular and continuous core structures. It corresponds to the limit of stability of peripheral vortices for single and double quantization respectively.
