Anomalous flux-flow dynamics in layered type-II superconductors at low temperatures

Low-temperature dissipation due to vortex motion in strongly anisotropic type-II superconductors with a moderate disorder ($\Delta^2/E_F << \hbar/\tau << \Delta$) is shown to be determined by the Zener-type transitions between the localized electronic states in the vortex core. Statistics of these levels is described by the random matrix ensemble of the class C defined recently by Atland and Zirnbauer [cond-mat/9602137], so the vortex motion leads naturally to the new example of a parametric statistics of energy levels. The flux-flow conductivity $\sigma_{xx}$ is a bit lower than the quasiclassical one and ``grows'' slowly with the increase of the electric field.
