Bifurcations in Long Josephson Junctions with Second Harmonic in the Current-Phase Relation: Numerical Study

Critical regimes in the long Josephson junction LJJ are studied within the frame of a model accounting the second harmonic in the current-phase relation CPR. Numerical approach is shown to provide a good agreement with analytic results. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the availabilities and advantages of the numerical scheme for investigation of bifurcations and properties of the magnetic flux distributions in dependence on the sign and value of the second harmonic in CPR.
