Abstract:
The origin of the low magnetization anisotropy of the textured bulk samples consisting of highly anisotropic (Bi,Pb)$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$Ņa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ (Bi-2223) high-temperature superconductor crystallites has been investigated. It has been established that the observed anisotropy is determined by the disordering of Bi-2223 crystallites in the sample. The measured anisotropy of the textured sample makes it possible to determine the magnetic angle characterizing the ordering of crystallites.
