Abstract

Superconductivity and magnetism in the non-centrosymmetric heavy fermion compound CePt3_3Si and related materials are theoretically investigated. Based on the randam phase approximation (RPA) analysis for the extended Hubbard model we describe the helical spin fluctuation induced by the Rashba-type anti-symmetric spin-orbit coupling and identify the two stable superconducting phases with either dominantly p-wave (ss + PP-wave) or d-wave (pp + DD + ff-wave) symmetry. The influcnce of the coexistent anti-ferromagnetic order is investigated in both states. The SC order parameter, quasiparticle density of state, NMR 1/T1T1/T_{1}T, specific heat, anisotropy of Hc2H_{\rm c2} and possible multiple phase transitions are discussed in details. The comparison with experimental results indicates that the ss + PP-wave superconducting state is likely realized in CePt3_3Si.
