7 5 y/ξ x/ξ 5 y/ξ x/ξ The equilibrium vortex phase diagram: solid lines illustrate transitions between different vortex configurations for different size (R d ) and magnetic moment (m) of the dot. Dashed lines denote the formation of a new ring of anti-vortices. N is the number of the anti-vortices involved. Note that the total vorticity is always equal zero. In shaded area, the multivortex state under the dot is energetically favorable (giant vortex splits into individual vortices).

22 Summary Magnets with out-of-plane magnetization attract parallel aligned vortices, and vice versa. The origin of the magnetic pinning of vortices lies in the interactions with the Meissner currents. In the case of a regular array of weakly magnetized dots we found matching configurations (both integer and rational). Asymmetric flux pinning is explained, depending on the polarity of the external field. For a superconducting film with a single magnetic disk on top, the total vorticity always equals zero - a central core of vortices (under the disk) is surrounded by antivortex shells Wigner vortex molecule, with size-magnetization-controlled magic numbers. For stronger magnetized dots, their stray field perturbs the order parameter in the vicinity of the dots. Regular vortex-antivortex lattices are formed, with vortices under the dots and antivortices at interstitial sites First and second order configurational transitions, fractional vortex-antivortex states, lattice effects on the vortex nucleation, External flux lines compensate the existing antivortices in the sample external-fieldenhanced critical current and critical field. Therefore, magnetic nano-engineering, and local defining of the magnetic field in the sample is a powerful tool for controlling the critical parameters of the superconductor.
