Lovesey and Staub have argued [S.W. Lovesey and U. Staub, Phys. Rev. B 61, 9130 (2000)] that experimental data on the temperature dependence of the paramagnetic relaxation of lanthanide ions doped into YBa2Cu3O6+x are in agreement with the…
Within a BCS-type mean-field approach to the extended Hubbard model, a nontrivial dependence of T_c on the hole content per unit CuO_2 is recovered, in good agreement with the celebrated non-monotonic universal behaviour at normal pressure.…
Incommensurate charge order (CO) has been identified as the leading competitor of high-temperature superconductivity in all major families of layered copper oxides, but the perplexing variety of CO states in different cuprates has…
Self-doping in YBa2Cu3Oy starts to switch from a charge balancing of chain metal reduction and plane oxidation to one of chain ligand oxidation (O-) and plane reduction on quenching from >600K. Amongst the responses are plane expansions and…
In order to investigate the electronic state in the normal state of high-Tc cuprates in a wide range of temperature and hole-concentration, specific-heat, electrical-resistivity, magnetization and muon-spin-relaxation (muSR) measurements…
Electrons in condensed matter have internal degrees of freedom, such as charge, spin and orbital, leading to various forms of ordered states through phase transitions. However, in individual materials, a charge/spin/orbital ordered state of…
Band structure trends in hole-doped cuprates and correlations with T_c are interpreted within the s--d exchange mechanism of high-T_c superconductivity. The dependence of T_c on the position of the copper 4s level finds a natural…
The electron neutrino mass has been measured in several tritium beta decay experiments. These experiments are sensitive to a small neutrino mass because the energy release of the decay is small. But the very smallness of the energy release…
The discovery of the jet quenching in central Au + Au collisions at the Relativistic Heavy-ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory has provided clear evidence for the formation of strongly interacting dense matter. It has been…

We study a model of $n$-layer high-temperature cuprates of homologous series like HgBa_2Ca_(n-1)Cu_nO_(2+2n+\delta) to explain the dependence of the critical temperature Tc(n) on the number $n$ of Cu-O planes in the elementary cell.…

We have studied the penetration depth for a model of $YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7}$ involving pairing both in the $CuO_{2}$ planes and in the CuO chains. In this model pairing in the planes is due to an attractive interaction, while Coulomb repulsion…
