A fundamental challenge to our current understanding of metals is the frequent observation of qualitative departures from Fermi liquid behavior. The standard view attributes such non-Fermi liquid phenomena to the scattering of electrons off…

High-temperature superconductors (HTSC) and heavy-fermion (HF) metals exhibit extraordinary properties. They are so unusual that the traditional Landau paradigm of quasiparticles does not apply. It is widely believed that utterly new…
Some of the highest-transition-temperature superconductors across various materials classes exhibit linear-in-temperature `strange metal' or `Planckian' electrical resistivities in their normal state. It is thus believed by many that this…
The heavy fermion material UTe$_2$ hosts a suite of exotic superconducting phases, the most extreme of which resides in a narrow angular window of intense magnetic fields $>$ 40 T. Here we report that in the angular and field regime in…
Using the theory of the high temperature superconductivity based on the idea of the fermion condensation quantum phase transition (FCQPT), we show that neither the d-wave pairing symmetry, nor the pseudogap phenomenon, nor the presence of…
