Josephson Plasma Resonance as a Structural Probe of Vortex Liquid

Recent developments of the Josephson plasma resonance and transport c-axis measurements in layered high T$_{c}$ superconductors allow to probe Josephson coupling in a wide range of the vortex phase diagram. We derive a relation between the field dependent Josephson coupling energy and the density correlation function of the vortex liquid. This relation provides a unique opportunity to extract the density correlation function of pancake vortices from the dependence of the plasma resonance on the $ab$-component of the magnetic field at a fixed $c$-axis component.

Magnetism and Superconductivity in (RE)Ni2B2C: The Case of TmNi2B2C

The recently reported coexistence of an oscillatory magnetic order with the wave vector Q=0.241 Å^{-1} and superconductivity in TmNi2B2C is analyzed theoretically. It is shown that the oscillatory magnetic order and superconductivity interact predominantly via the exchange interaction between localized moments (LM's) and conduction electrons, while the electromagnetic interaction between them is negligible. In the coexistence phase of the clean TmNi2B2C the quasiparticle spectrum should have a line of zeros at the Fermi surface, giving rise to the power law behavior of thermodynamic and transport properties. Two scenarios of the origin of the oscillatory magnetic order in TmNi2B2C are analyzed: a) due to superconductivity and b) independently on superconductivity. Experiments in magnetic field are proposed in order to choose between them.

Theory of Interplay of Nuclear Magnetism and Superconductivity in AuIn2

The recently reported coexistence of a magnetic order, with the critical temperature T_M=35 μ*K, and superconductivity, with the critical temperature T_S=207 m*K, in AuIn_2 is studied theoretically. It is shown that superconducting (S) electrons and localized nuclear magnetic moments (LM's) interact dominantly via the contact hyperfine (EX) interaction, giving rise to a spiral (or domain-like) magnetic order in superconducting phase. The electromagnetic interaction between LM's and S electrons is small compared to the EX one giving minor contribution to the formation of the oscillatory magnetic order. In clean samples (l>ξ_0) of AuIn$_2$ the oscillatory magnetic order should produce a line of nodes in the quasiparticle spectrum of S electrons giving rise to the power law behavior. The critical field H_c(T=0) in the coexistence phase is reduced by factor two with respect to its bare value.
