Magnetic relaxation and collective vortex creep in FeTe_(0.6)Se_(0.4) single crystal

We study the vortex dynamics in high-quality FeTe$_{0.6}$Se$_{0.4}$ single crystal by performing magnetization measurements of the screening current density \emph{J}$_s$ and flux creep rate \emph{S}. Temperature dependence of \emph{S} shows a plateau in the intermediate temperature region with a high creep rate $\sim$ 0.03, which is interpreted in the framework of the collective creep theory. A crossover from elastic to plastic creep is observed. The glassy exponent and barrier height for flux creep are directly determined by extended Maley's method. \emph{J}$_s$ with flux creep, obtained from magnetic hysteresis loops, is successfully reproduced based on the collective creep analysis. We also approach critical current density without flux creep by means of the generalized inversion scheme, which proves that the $\delta$\emph{l} and $\delta$\emph{T}$_c$ pinning coexist in FeTe$_{0.6}$Se$_{0.4}$ single crystal.
