タイトル：Critical Fields of s+- Superconductors

アブストラクト：Critical fields of type-II superconductors are among most studied properties linked directly to the characteristic length scales, the London penetration depth and the coherence length. More fundamentally, critical fields are determined by the microscopic pairing mechanism, electronic bandstructure as well as impurity scattering. Unfortunately, ubiquitous comparison of the experiment with so-called “WHH” or similar models is oversimplified and may lead to erroneous conclusions. This is especially important in case of multiband and even more so, s superconductors. I will summarize the results of our numerical studies and compare them with the available experiments. For example, I will show that some commonly accepted signatures of multiband superconductivity (e.g., temperature dependent anisotropy) and/or Pauli limiting can often be reproduced in the single-band case when anisotropic Fermi surface and order parameter are considered. This talk is a tribute to Vladimir G. Kogan, my dear colleague and long-time collaborator, the recipient of this year Abrikosov Prize in vortex physics.
