Electronic Structure, Electron-Phonon Coupling, and Multiband Effects in MgB2

Superconductivity 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

We review the current situation in the theory of superconducting and transport properties of MgB2. First principle calculations of of the electronic structure and electron-phonon coupling are discussed and compared with the experiment. We also present a brief description of the multiband effects in superconductivity and transport, and how these manifest themselves in MgB2. We also mention some yet open questions.
