Abstract
We determine the position and shape of the melting line in a layered superconductor taking the electromagnetic coupling between layers into account. In the limit of vanishing Josephson coupling we obtain a new generic reentrant low-field melting line. Finite Josephson coupling pushes the melting line to higher temperatures and fields and a new line shape $B_{{\rm m}} \propto (1-T/T_c)^{3/2}$ is found. We construct the low-field phase diagram including melting and decoupling lines and discuss various experiments in the light of our new results.
