I − max c denoting it as I max c . Similar to [16, 17], we found the deviation of the I$_{c}$ ( B$_{‖}$ ) curve from a ”vortex-free” Fraunhofer-like curve (Fig.3, open circles) and we observed a strong suppression of I max c . For each value of B$_{⊥}$ the vortex density n$_{A}$ was calculated by using Eq.(12). The dependence of the maximum Josephson critical current I max c on the density of trapped Abrikosov vortices n$_{A}$ is shown in Fig. 7 by open squares. It is well known that
