Superconductivity, a state in which electrical currents can flow without resistance, occurs because of pairing of electrons into quasiparticles with integer spin $S$. In practically all known superconducting materials, these pairs form a…
A small number of superconductors are believed to exhibit intrinsic spin triplet pairing, and they are often discussed in terms of a simple, $^3$He-like picture where ferromagnetic spin fluctuations provide the "glue". However, in some…
The magnon exchange mechanism of ferromagnetic superconductivity (FM-superconductivity) was developed to explain in a natural way the fact that the superconductivity in $UGe_2$, $ZrZn_2$ and $URhGe$ is confined to the ferromagnetic…
