## TL;DR

This paper studies how vortex lattices in high-temperature superconductors behave under different interaction potentials using a Monte Carlo simulation.

## Contribution

The study introduces a new analysis of vortex–vortex interactions in layered superconductors using specific interaction potentials.

## Key findings

- Vortex systems exhibit clustering behavior under specific interaction potentials.
- Melting of vortex lattices occurs with increasing temperature.
- Interaction potentials similar to κ = 1/2 and ferromagnetic superconductors were analyzed.

## Abstract

Magnetization reversal processes in a vortex system with different potentials of vortex–vortex interaction were studied using the Monte Carlo method within the framework of a two-dimensional model of a layered high-temperature superconductor. Interaction potentials close to the potential applicable in superconductors with the Ginzburg–Landau parameter κ = 1/2 (intertype superconductors) and in ferromagnetic superconductors have been analyzed. Clustering of the vortex system is demonstrated. The melting of a vortex lattice with increasing temperature has been studied.
