Single nonmagnetic impurity resonance in FeSe-based 122-type superconductors as a probe for pairing symmetry

We study the effect of a single non-magnetic impurity in A$_{y}$Fe$_{2-x}$Se$_{2}$ (A=K, Rb, or Cs) superconductors by considering various pairing states based on a three-orbital model consistent with the photoemission experiments. The local density of states on and near the impurity site has been calculated by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations self-consistently. The impurity-induced in-gap bound states are found only for attractive impurity scattering potential, as in the cases of doping of Co or Ni, which is characterized by the strong particle-hole asymmetry, in the nodeless $d_{x^2-y^2}$ wave pairing state. This property may be used to probe the pairing symmetry of FeSe-based 122-type superconductors.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figure

Detection of Quasi-periodic Oscillations in SGR 150228213

The detection of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in magnetar giant flares (GFs) has brought a new perspective to study the mechanism of magnetar bursts. Due to the scarcity of GFs, searching QPOs from magnetar short bursts is reasonable. Here we report the detection of a high frequency QPO at approximately 110 Hz and a wide QPO at approximately 60 Hz in a short magnetar burst SGR 150228213, with a confidence level of 3.35$\sigma$. This burst was initially attributed to 4U 0142+61 by $Fermi$/GBM on location, but we haven't detected such QPOs in other bursts from this magnetar. We also found that there was a repeating fast radio burst associated with SGR 150228213 on location. Finally, we discuss the possible origins of SGR 150228213
