    Über die Gelenkinfiltration maligner Knochentumoren unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Inzidenzen, Infiltrationswege und radiologischen Charakteristika In dieser Studie wurde die Inzidenz maligner Knochentumoren, die Infiltrationswege und die radiologischen Charakteristika der Gelenkinfiltration analysiert. Das Iliosakralgelenk zeigte eine höhere Infiltrationsrate als das Hüft- und Schultergelenk. Chondrosarkome und Osteosarkome zeigten eine höhere Rate an Gelenkinfiltrationen als Ewing-Sarkome. Die Gelenke wurden häufig über intraartikuläre Strukturen infiltriert. Verdächtige radiologische Befunde sollten zu der Annahme einer Gelenkinfiltration führen, und somit eine extraartikuläre Resektion nach sich ziehen. Dieses gilt insbesondere für Chondro- und Osteosarkome. Die Infiltrationsrate von Ewing-Sarkomen und kleinen Tumoren ist gering, so daß eine intraartikuläre Resektion durchgeführt werden kann, wenn radiologisch kein Verdacht einer Gelenkinfiltration besteht

    Disparity of superconducting and pseudogap scales in low-Tc Bi-2201 cuprates

    Full text link
    We experimentally study transport and intrinsic tunneling characteristics of a single-layer cuprate Bi(2+x)Sr(2-y)CuO(6+delta) with a low superconducting critical temperature Tc < 4 K. It is observed that the superconducting energy, critical field and fluctuation temperature range are scaling down with Tc, while the corresponding pseudogap characteristics have the same order of magnitude as for high-Tc cuprates with 20 to 30 times higher Tc. The observed disparity of the superconducting and pseudogap scales clearly reveals their different origins.Comment: 5 page

    Full-gap superconductivity robust against disorder in heavy-fermion CeCu2Si2

    A key aspect of unconventional pairing by the antiferromagnetic spin-fluctuation mechanism is that the superconducting energy gap must have opposite sign on different parts of the Fermi surface. Recent observations of non-nodal gap structure in the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCu2_2Si2_2 were then very surprising, given that this material has long been considered a prototypical example of a superconductor where the Cooper pairing is magnetically mediated. Here we present a study of the effect of controlled point defects, introduced by electron irradiation, on the temperature-dependent magnetic penetration depth λ(T)\lambda(T) in CeCu2_2Si2_2. We find that the fully-gapped state is robust against disorder, demonstrating that low-energy bound states, expected for sign-changing gap structures, are not induced by nonmagnetic impurities. This provides bulk evidence for s++s_{++}-wave superconductivity without sign reversal.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures + Supplemental Material (1 page, 1 figure). Will appear in Phys. Rev. Let

    Reply to Comment by Borisenko et al. on article `A de Haas-van Alphen study of the Fermi surfaces of superconducting LiFeP and LiFeAs'

    Recently, Borisenko et al have posted a Comment (arXiv:1108.1159) where they suggest an alternative interpretation of our de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) measurements on the superconductor LiFeAs. In our original paper (arXiv:1107.4375) we concluded that our measurements of the bulk Fermi surface were not consistent with the surface bands observed thus far by ARPES. Borisenko et al dispute this and suggest the two measurements are consistent if some of the orbits we observe are due to magnetic breakdown. We argue here that this scenario is inconsistent with the experimental data and therefore that our original conclusion stands.Comment: 4 pages with figure

    Correlation between Fermi surface transformations and superconductivity in the electron-doped high-TcT_c superconductor Nd2x_{2-x}Cex_xCuO4_4

    Two critical points have been revealed in the normal-state phase diagram of the electron-doped cuprate superconductor Nd2x_{2-x}Cex_xCuO4_4 by exploring the Fermi surface properties of high quality single crystals by high-field magnetotransport. First, the quantitative analysis of the Shubnikov-de Haas effect shows that the weak superlattice potential responsible for the Fermi surface reconstruction in the overdoped regime extrapolates to zero at the doping level xc=0.175x_c = 0.175 corresponding to the onset of superconductivity. Second, the high-field Hall coefficient exhibits a sharp drop right below optimal doping xopt=0.145x_{\mathrm{opt}} = 0.145 where the superconducting transition temperature is maximum. This drop is most likely caused by the onset of long-range antiferromagnetic ordering. Thus, the superconducting dome appears to be pinned by two critical points to the normal state phase diagram.Comment: 9 pages; 7 figures; 1 tabl

Irradiation experiments performed on the SIRIUS platform were supported by the French National Network of Accelerators for Irradiation and Analysis of Molecules and Materials (EMIR&A) under Project No. EMIR 2019 18-7099.The delafossite metal PtCoO2 is among the highest-purity materials known, with low-temperature mean free path up to 5 μm in the best as-grown single crystals. It exhibits a strongly faceted, nearly hexagonal Fermi surface. This property has profound consequences for nonlocal transport within this material, such as in the classic ballistic-regime measurement of bend resistance in mesoscopic squares. Here, we report the results of experiments in which high-energy electron irradiation was used to introduce pointlike disorder into such squares, reducing the mean free path and therefore the strength of the ballistic-regime transport phenomena. We demonstrate that high-energy electron irradiation is a well-controlled technique to cross from nonlocal to local transport behavior and therefore determine the nature and extent of unconventional transport regimes. Using this technique, we confirm the origins of the directional ballistic effects observed in delafossite metals and demonstrate how the strongly faceted Fermi surface both leads to unconventional transport behavior and enhances the length scale over which such effects are important. © 2023 authors.
