In a recent Letter, Serbyn et al. [A] investigated thermomagnetic effects above the superconducting transition and generalized previous works for arbitrary magnetic fields and temperatures. While the results of [A] have been confirmed in…
In a recent Reply [arXiv:1012.4361] to our Comment [arXiv:0906.2389, accepted to PRL], Serbyn, Skvortsov, and Varlamov raised a question of microscopic description, which we did not touch in Comment, and criticized our work [Phys. Rev. B…
The theory of thermoelectric effects in superconductors is discussed in connection to the recent publication by Marinescu and Overhauser, Phys. Rev. B 55, 11637 (1997). We argue that the charge on-conservation arguments by Marinescu and…
In this communication we refute a criticism concerning results of our work [3] that was presented in references [1] and [2].
Here we reply to the comment by A. F. Volkov, F. S. Bergeret, and K. B. Efetov.
We evaluate the superconducting fluctuation corrections to thermal conductivity in the normal state which diverge as T approaches T_c. We find zero total contribution for one, two and three-dimensional superconductors for arbitrary impurity…
A comment is made on a letter (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 102}, 067001) and a paper (Phys. Rev. B {\bf 83}, 020506) regarding the correct expression of the thermal current vertex for Cooper pairs.
Recently, Brevik et al. [Phys. Rev. E 71, 056101 (2005)] adduced arguments against the traditional approach to the thermal Casimir force between real metals and in favor of one of the alternative approaches. The latter assumes zero…
We explain why the objections raised by Golubev et al. in a comment on cond-mat/0111398 are not valid.
It is widely believed that temperature gradient does not induce electric field in the superconductor and consequently that thermoelectric effects do not exist, or are negligible in these materials. This statement is correct only as far as…
A rebuttal of a recent article by Hirsch J.E. is presented below. To begin with, the main assumption, regarding the Meissner effect, which the whole argument relies upon, is disproved. Besides, the subsequent analysis misconstrues an…
We provide a reply to a comment by I. Goychuk arXiv:1708.04155, version v2 from 27 Aug 2017 (not under active consideration with Phys. Rev. Lett.), on our Letter E. Aghion, D. A. Kessler and E. Barkai, Phys. Rev. Lett., 118, 260601 (2017).
Comment on the Letter by M. Franz and Z. Tesanovic, Phys. Rev. Lett. v.87, p.257003 (2001).
Employing quasiclassical theory of superconductivity combined with Keldysh technique we investigate large thermoelectric effect in multiterminal ballistic normal-superconducting (NS) hybrid structures. We argue that this effect is caused by…
We reply to the comment cond-mat/0008098 by Yang, Sun, and Chang on our paper "Theory of Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor Ferromagnetism", Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 5628 (2000).
In their Rejoinder [arXiv:1105.1316v1], Levin and Pakter repeat some of the points raised in their previous Comment [arXiv:1104.0697v1] (already refuted in our first Reply [arXiv:1104.5036v1]), and present some new ones concerning our…
We calculate the contribution of superconducting fluctuations to thermal transport in the normal state, for low magnetic fields. We do so in the Gaussian approximation to their critical dynamics which is also the Aslamazov-Larkin…
In Ref. [1] we surveyed the known hydride superconductors, and compared their resistive behavior to that of typical known superconductors, including conventional (e.g. NbN and MgB$_2$) and unconventional (e.g. YBCO) superconductors, and…
Reply to the Comment on "Unified Formulism of Andreev Reflection at a Ferromagnetic/Superconductor Interface" by Eschrig et al
We regret that PRL did not accept our Reply for publication. We believe that both our Reply and the original paper (Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 135901 (2017)) is sound and correct. We post our reply here and let readers to judge.
