Which mechanism prevents Type II superconducting wires from exceeding critical fields?

💡 Explanation

Abrikosov vortex pinning prevents complete flux penetration, therefore superconductivity persists to higher fields because it locks vortices in place rather than instantly quenching the superconducting state as a result of magnetic blowout.
