Coexistence of static magnetism and superconductivity in SmFeAsO(1-x)F(x) as revealed by muon spin rotation.

TLDR
A muon spin rotation study on SmFeAsO(1-x)F(x), with x=0-0.30 that shows that, as in the cuprates, static magnetism persists well into the superconducting regime, suggests that the proximity to magnetic order and associated soft magnetic fluctuations, rather than strong electronic correlations in the vicinity of a Mott-Hubbard transition, may be the key ingredients of high-Tc superconductors.
Abstract
In non-conventional superconductors, the competition of magnetic order and superconductivity seems to be a key element for the origin of superconductivity. Investigation of the newly discovered iron-pnictides superconductors challenges this picture, showing a coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism.
