Popis: The muon-spin-relaxation technique has been used to study vortex dynamics in single-phase superconducting single crystals of Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8+{delta}} ({ital T}{sub {ital c}}{approx}90 K). The data indicate motional narrowing of the internal field distribution due to vortex motion (on a time scale comparable to the muon lifetime). A field-dependent lattice transition is also observed at {ital T}{sub {ital x}}{similar to}30 K, as evidenced by the onset of an asymmetric line shape below {ital T}{sub {ital x}}. Narrowing arising from disordering of the vortices along (001) is also discussed with reference to its effect on the measured penetration depth.
