Popis: Unconventional superconductivity: role of magnetic interactions in strontium ruthenate A new framework for analysing the role of magnetic interactions on the unconventional superconductivity in strontium ruthenate. Strontium ruthenate is an unconventional superconductor that used to be touted a potential three-dimensional analogue of Helium-3, as it was thought to have the same type of chiral p-wave pairing. It is now widely accepted that this is not the case, but many questions remain over the exact nature of the pairing, particularly regarding the role of magnetic interactions. An international team of researchers led by Bongjae Kim and Sergii Khmelevskyi from the University of Vienna and Vienna University of Technology now present a framework that can incorporate the leading isotropic and anisotropic magnetic interactions in a different but complimentary way to the widely used Hubbard-model, providing an alternative way of exploring the superconducting pairing symmetry.
