We calculate the one-electron spectral function of the attractive-U Hubbard
model in two dimensions. We work in the intermediate coupling and low density
regime and evaluate analytically the self-energy. The results are obtained in a
framework based on the self-consistent T-matrix approximation. We also
calculate the chemical potential of the bound pairs as a function of
temperature. On the basis of this calculation we analyze the low-temperature
resistivity and specific heat in the normal state of this system. We compare
our results with recent beautiful tunneling experiments in the underdoped
regime of HTSC-materials.Comment: 2 pages, LT22 Conference paper, phbauth and elsart style files
