We report measurements of ac susceptibility and hence the in-plane London penetration depth on the same samples of Bi2.15Sr1.85CaCu2O8+δ and Bi2.1Sr1.9Ca0.85Y0.15Cu2O8+δ for many values of the hole concentration (p). These support the scenario in which the pseudogap weakens the superconducting response only for p≲0.19.
