Abstract
In this thesis, we studied the problem of the interaction between a superconducting thin film and a two-dimensional magnetization distribution. We considered the magnetization such that it depends on r, the radius, only. We gave a general formalism for this problem. The magnetization generates a magnetic field, which penetrates into the superconductor; hence screening currents are induced in the superconductor. We also studied the possibility of the simultaneous creation of vortices in the superconductor, and established the required conditions for that. In particular, we studied two configurations for the magnetization distribution, namely the magnetic vortex and magnetic dot. We found that the dot was capable of simultaneously creating vortices in the superconductor. However, the magnetic vortex did not.
