Popis: | The anisotropy of the electron scattering rate and lifetime $\Gamma_\mathbf{p}=1/\tau_\mathbf{p}$ observed by Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) is evaluated using $s$-$d$ Kondo-Zener exchange Hamiltonian used previously to describe superconducting properties of high-$T_c$ cuprates; for correlation between critical temperature $T_c$ and BCS coupling constant, for example. The performed qualitative analysis reveals that "cold spots" correspond to nodal regions of the superconducting phase where the superconducting gap is zero, because the exchange interaction is annulled. Vice versa, "hot spots" and intensive scattering in the normal state correspond to the regions with maximal gap in the superconducting phase. We have obtained that separable kernel postulated in the Fermi liquid approach to the normal phase is the same kernel which is exactly calculated in the framework of the $s$-$d$ approach in the Linear Combination of Atomic Orbital (LCAO) approximation for CuO$_2$ plane. In this sense, at least on the qualitative level, the superconducting cuprates are described by one and the same Hamiltonian applied to their superconducting and normal properties. For the overdopedcuprates having conventional Fermi liquid behavior we derived the corresponding Stoss-integral for the $s$-$d$ interaction in the framework of LCAO approximation which is the central result of the present study. Repeating the thermodynamics we observed that for optimally doped cuprates $2\Delta_\mathrm{max}/T_c$ is in good agreement with Pokrovsky theory for anisotropic gap superconductors.
