| Popis: | Motivated by the recent discovery of a new family of Chromium based superconductors, we consider a two-band model, where a band of electrons dispersing only in one direction interacts with a band of electrons dispersing in all three directions. Strong $2k_f$ density fluctuations in the one-dimensional band induces attractive interactions between the three-dimensional electrons, which, in turn makes the system superconducting. Solving the associated Eliashberg equations, we obtain a gap function which is peaked at the "poles" of the three-dimensional Fermi sphere, and decreases towards the "equator". When strong enough local repulsion is included, the gap actually changes sign around the "equator" and nodal rings are formed. These nodal rings manifest themselves in several experimentally observable quantities, some of which resemble unconventional observations in the newly discovered superconductors which motivated this work.
