TLDR
A flop transition in the spin density wave order parameter vector is proposed, which affects the nature of the superconducting state and leads to the appearance of several new phases.
Abstract
We discuss the possibility of the coexistence of spin density waves (antiferromagnetism) and triplet superconductivity as a particular example of a broad class of systems where the interplay of magnetism and superconductivity is important. We focus on the case of quasi-one-dimensional metals, where it is known that antiferromagnetism is in close proximity to triplet superconductivity in the pressure versus temperature phase diagram. Over a range of pressures, we propose an intermediate nonuniform phase consisting of antiferromagnetic and triplet superconducting orders. In the coexistence region, we propose a flop transition in the spin density wave order parameter vector, which affects the nature of the superconducting state and leads to the appearance of several new phases.

Superconductivity in a layered perovskite without copper

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the presence of copper is not a prerequisite for the existence of superconductivity in a layered perovskite, and that the low value of the superconducting transition temperature (Tc = 0.93 K) points towards a special role for copper in the high-temperature superconductors.

TL;DR: The observation of superconductivity in the ferromagnetically ordered phase of the d-electron compound ZrZn2 suggests that metallic ferromagnets may universally become superconducting when the magnetization is small.
