     Besides measurement of the critical current density $j_{c}$ and of creep rates $S$, the $ac$ magnetic response provides valuable information on the pinscape which is different from that obtained through $j_{c}$ or $S$, with the Campbell penetration depth $\lambda _{\rm {\scriptscriptstyle C}}$ defining a characteristic quantity well accessible in an experiment.
