Anisotropy of heat capacity in Pauli limited unconventional superconductors

arXiv:cond-mat/0606390 · doi:10.1016/j.physc.2007.03.355

Abstract

Diamagnetically coupled magnetic field can be used as a probe of nodal positions in unconventional superconductors. The heat capacity depends on the angle $ϕ_0$ between the magnetic field and the nodal directions. We show that the anisotropy $C(ϕ_0)$ persists even in systems with strong paramagnetic coupling to the electrons's spins.
