Nodal Landau Fermi-Liquid Quasiparticles in Overdoped LaSrCuO
Nodal angle resolved photoemission spectra taken on overdoped
LaSrCuO are presented and analyzed. It is proven that the
low-energy excitations are true Landau Fermi-liquid quasiparticles. We show
that momentum and energy distribution curves can be analyzed self-consistently
without quantitative knowledge of the bare band dispersion. Finally, by
imposing Kramers-Kronig consistency on the self-energy , insight into
the quasiparticle residue is gained. We conclude by comparing our results to
quasiparticle properties extracted from thermodynamic, magneto-resistance, and
high-field quantum oscillation experiments on overdoped
TlBaCuO.Comment: Accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
Electronic structure near the 1/8-anomaly in La-based cuprates
We report an angle resolved photoemission study of the electronic structure
of the pseudogap state in \NdLSCO ( K). Two opposite dispersing Fermi
arcs are the main result of this study. The several scenarios that can explain
this observation are discussed.Comment: A high-resolution version can be found at

Spectroscopic evidence for preformed Cooper pairs in the pseudogap phase of cuprates
Angle-resolved photoemission on underdoped LaSrCuO
reveals that in the pseudogap phase, the dispersion has two branches located
above and below the Fermi level with a minimum at the Fermi momentum. This is
characteristic of the Bogoliubov dispersion in the superconducting state. We
also observe that the superconducting and pseudogaps have the same d-wave form
with the same amplitude. Our observations provide direct evidence for preformed
Cooper pairs, implying that the pseudogap phase is a precursor to
superconductivity
Effects of principal stress rotation on the wave–seabed interactions
This paper simulates the wave–seabed interactions considering the principal stress rotation (PSR) by using the finite element method. The soil model is developed within the framework of kinematic hardening and the bounding surface concept, and it can properly consider the impact of PSR by treating the PSR generating stress rate independently. The simulation results are compared with centrifuge test results. The comparison indicates that the simulation with the soil model considering the PSR can better reproduce the test results on the development of pore water pressure and liquefaction than the soil model without considering the PSR. It indicates that it is important to consider the PSR impact in simulation of wave–seabed soil interactions

Origins of large critical temperature variations in single layer cuprates
We study the electronic structures of two single layer superconducting
cuprates, TlBaCuO (Tl2201) and
(BiPb)(SrLa)CuO (Bi2201) which
have very different maximum critical temperatures (90K and 35K respectively)
using Angular Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES). We are able to
identify two main differences in their electronic properties. First, the shadow
band that is present in double layer and low T single layer cuprates
is absent in Tl2201. Recent studies have linked the shadow band to structural
distortions in the lattice and the absence of these in Tl2201 may be a
contributing factor in its T.Second, Tl2201's Fermi surface (FS)
contains long straight parallel regions near the anti-node, while in Bi2201 the
anti-nodal region is much more rounded. Since the size of the superconducting
gap is largest in the anti-nodal region, differences in the band dispersion at
the anti-node may play a significant role in the pairing and therefore affect
the maximum transition temperature.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures,1 tabl
