We study the peculiarities of coherency in the superconductivity of two-orbital system. The superconducting phase transition is caused here by the on-site intra-orbital attractions (negative-U Hubbard model) and inter-orbital pair-transfer interaction. The dependencies of critical and noncritical correlation lengths on interaction channels and band fillings are analyzed.
We study the motion of charged Brownian particles in an external magnetic field. It is found that a correlation appears between the components of particle velocity in the case of anisotropic friction, approaching asymptotically zero in the stationary limit. If magnetic field is smaller compared to the critical value, determined by frictional anisotropy, the relaxation of the correlation is non-oscillating in time. However, in a larger magnetic field this relaxation becomes oscillating. The phenomenon is related to the statistical dependence of the components of transformed random force caused by the simultaneous influence of magnetic field and anisotropic dissipation.
The free energy expansion of a two-band pair-transfer superconductor is developed. A critical in temperature and a noncritical coherence length appear. The effective in-plane $ξ_{ab}$, $H_{c2}\sp c\sim ξ_{ab}\sp{-2}$ and the thermodynamic critical magnetic field ($H_{c0}$) on the whole hole doping ($p$) scale are calculated for a "typical'' cuprate. A doping-prepared bare spectrum with normal state gaps quenched by doping has been used. The coherence length $ξ_{ab}$ falls with $p$ first rapidly. A moderate enhancement starts when the "cold'' defect band overlap with the valence band is reached. At overdoping $ξ_{ab}$ rises markedly. The $H_{c2}\sp c$ curve shows a maximum before $T_{cmax}$. The bell-like $H_{c0}$-curve follows closely $T_c$, superconducting gaps, and superfluid density. The theoretical $ξ_{ab}(p)$ nonmonotonic curve on the whole doping scale agrees with a recent experimental finding.
The paper studies the overdamped motion of Brownian particles in a tilted sawtooth potential. The dependencies of the diffusion coefficient and coherence level of Brownian transport on temperature, tilting force, and the shape of the potential are analyzed. It is demonstrated that at low temperatures the coherence level of Brownian transport stabilizes in the extensive domain of the tilting force where the value of the Peclet factor is Pe=2. This domain coincides with the one where the enhancement of the diffusion coefficient versus the tilting force is the most rapid. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the non-monotonic behaviour of the diffusion coefficient as a function of temperature are found. The effect of the acceleration of diffusion by bias and temperature is demonstrated to be very sensitive to the value of the asymmetry parameter of the potential.
