Field-Induced Quantum Critical Point in C e C o I n 5

TL;DR: Evidence is presented for a field-induced quantum critical point (QCP), occurring at a critical field which coincides, within experimental accuracy, with the superconducting critical field H(c2), and the relation of this field-tuned QCP to a change in the magnetic state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat transport in a strongly overdoped cuprate: Fermi liquid and a pure d-wave BCS superconductor.

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that the electrons in overdoped cuprates form a Fermi liquid, with no indication of spin-charge separation, in quantitative agreement with BCS theory for a d-wave superconductor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal conductivity across the phase diagram of cuprates: Low-energy quasiparticles and doping dependence of the superconducting gap

TL;DR: In this article, the low energy quasiparticle gap extracted from cuprate superconductors is seen to scale closely with the pseudogap and the ubiquitous presence of nodes and the tracking of the pseudoogap shows that the overall gap remains of the pure d-wave form throughout the phase diagram, which excludes the possibility of a complex component $(\mathrm{ix})$ appearing at a putative quantum phase transition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat conduction in the vortex state of NbSe2: evidence for multiband superconductivity.

TL;DR: The thermal conductivity kappa of the layered s-wave superconductor NbSe2 was measured down to T(c)/100 throughout the vortex state, and two regimes are identified: one with localized states at fields very near H(c1) and one with highly delocalized quasiparticle excitations at higher fields.

Treatment planning in a virtual environment

TL;DR: In this paper, a treatment planning system provides a computer- simulated virtual environment including a virtual artifact that is a 3D simulation of a patient anatomy, wherein the three-dimensional simulation is generated from one or more diagnostic images taken of the patient anatomy.
