We study the effect of impurity scattering in the unitarity limit on the A and B phase superconductivity in PrOs4Sb12. We take the triplet p+h-wave superconducting order parameters and the impurity scattering is treated within the standard theory. We find the quasiparticle density of states and thermodynamics are very sensitive to the impurity scattering. The impurity scattering dependence of t...

We compute the single-particle inverse lifetime, along with the conductivity-derived scattering rate, for a metallic system in an s-wave superconducting state. When both electron-phonon and electron-impurity scattering are included , we find that while these scattering rates are in qualitative agreement, in general quantitative agreement is lacking. We also derive results for the quasiparticle ...

We consider the anomalous Hall AH effect in thin disordered ferromagnetic films. Using a microscopic model of electrons in a random potential of identical impurities including spin-orbit coupling, we develop a general formulation for strong, finite range impurity scattering. Explicit calculations are done within a short range but strong impurity scattering to obtain AH conductivities for both t...

We study the low-temperature properties of a spin2 magnetic impurity coupled to a one-dimensional interacting electron system. Using the newly developed formalism by Affleck and Ludwig, with a scale invariant boundary condition replacing the impurity, we exploit boundary conformal field theory to deduce the impurity thermal and magnetic response. In the case of only forward electron scattering ...

Using bosonization and path integral methods, we study general low temperature behavior of non-magnetic and magnetic impurity scattering in Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid, and calculate electron Green function for a general backward scattering potential. We demonstrate that electron density of state near the impurity site is suppressed by the backward scattering, but it mainly remains invariant as f...

Tunneling conductance spectra between a normal metal / d-wave superconductor junction under the presence of bulk impurities in the superconductor are studied. The quasiclassical theory has been applied to calculate the spatial variation of the pair potential and the effect of impurity scattering has been introduced by t-matrix approximation. The magnitude of a subdominant s-wave component at th...

Using bosonization and path-integral methods, we study general low-temperature behavior of nonmagnetic and magnetic impurity scattering in Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid, and calculate the electron Green function for a general backward scattering potential. We demonstrate that the electron density of state near the impurity site is suppressed by backward scattering, but it mainly remains invariant f...

A theory of nonmagnetic impurities in an anisotropic superconductor including the effect of anisotropic (momentum-dependent) impurity scattering is given. It is shown that for a strongly anisotropic scattering the reduction of the pair-breaking effect of the impurities is large. For a significant overlap between the anisotropy functions of the scattering potential and that of the pair potential...

We compute the single particle inverse lifetime, evaluated in the superconducting state. Within the BCS framework, the calculation can be done nonperturbatively, i.e. poles can be found well away from the real axis. We find that perturbative calculations are in good agreement with these results, even for non-zero impurity scattering. With electron-phonon scattering added to the problem, we use ...
