Abstract
In-plane angular magnetoresistivity measurements were made on single crystals in the pseudogap region. For single crystals, displays a deviation from the typical quasiparticle contribution () for temperatures smaller than a certain value in the pseudogap region. This deviation is consistent with a flux-flow type contribution to angular magnetoresistivity, indicating the presence of vortexlike excitations above the zero-field critical temperature in the pseudogap region.
