Abstract
Perturbation methods are used to study the dynamics of locked
fluxon modes on stacked Josephson junctions and single crystals of certain
high-Tc superconductors. Two limiting cases are considered: (i) The non-
linear diffusion regime in which fluxon dynamics are dominated by energy
exchange between the bias and loss parameters, and (ii) The propagating
regime in which the interplay between magnetic and electric field energies
governs the fluxon dynamics. Conditions for stability of locked fluxon
modes are shown to be different in these two regimes.
