  The influence of surface treatment on AC loss in melt-processed quasi-single
crystal HTS was investigated with resonance oscillations technique. We have
found that amplitude dependencies of AC loss on magnetic field amplitude become
rather complicated after surface polishing. The experimental data show well
distinguished dynamic crossover from absence of barrier at low rates of field
variation to its appearence at higher rates. An explaination of such a dynamic
surface barrier appearance based on consideration of along surface vortex
propagation was suggested.
