Abstract :
The DC susceptibility of Bi2Sr2CaCu2 Ox single crystals has been measured in very low magnetic fields, applied parallel and perpendicular to c-axis. The Meissner and shielding effects have been observed for both orientations. It has been found that low-field magnetic properties are highly anisotropic. The incomplete shielding and Meissner effects are discussed in terms of existing theoretical models
