Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) is one of the most important techniques for microstructure determination, being utilized in a wide range of scientific disciplines, such as …
This review presents a summary and evaluation of the experimental properties of unconventional superconductivity in Sr 2 RuO 4 as they were known in the spring of 2002. At …
INTRODUCTION A central challenge of modern condensed matter physics is to understand the range of possible collective states formed by assemblies of strongly interacting electrons …
The authors present a review of recent muon spin rotation (μSR) studies of the vortex state in type-II superconductors. There are significant gaps in our understanding of this unusual …
In this paper, we review a large set of experimental data acquired over the past decade by several groups, and demonstrate how it can be used to construct a detailed picture of the …
We propose a simple way to stabilize half-quantum vortices in superconducting strontium ruthenate, assuming the order parameter is of chiral px+ ipy symmetry, as is suggested by …

The electronic states near a surface or a domain wall in the p-wave superconductor are studied for the order parameter of the form px±ip y-wave, which is a unitary odd-parity state …
We present scanning superconducting quantum interference device microscopy data on the superconductors Sr 2 RuO 4 (T c= 1.5 K) and PrOs 4 Sb 12 (T c= 1.8 K). In both of these …
