Photoemission spectra of the high temperature superconductor Bi2212 near (pi,0) show a dramatic change when cooling below Tc: the broad peak in the normal state turns into a sharp low energy peak followed by a higher binding energy hump.…
We derive photoelectron selection rules along the glide plane in orthorhombic Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta} (Bi2212). These selection rules explain the reversed intensity behavior of the shadow and the main band of the material as a natural…
