We have performed $^{75}$As nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) Knight shift measurements on single crystals of NaFe$_{0.975}$Co$_{0.025}$As to show that its superconductivity is a spin-paired, singlet state consistent with predictions of the weak-coupling BCS theory. We use a spectator nucleus, $^{23}$Na, uncoupled from the superconducting condensate, to determine the diamagnetic magnetization and to correct for its effect on the $^{75}$As NMR spectra. The resulting temperature dependence of the spin susceptibility follows the Yosida function as predicted by BCS for an isotropic, single-valued energy gap. Additionally, we have analyzed the $^{23}$Na spectra that become significantly broadened by vortices to obtain the superconducting penetration depth as a function of temperature with $lambda_{ab}(0) = 5,327 pm$ 78$,AA$.

We use inelastic neutron scattering to study the fate of the two spin resonance modes in underdoped superconducting NaFe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$As ($x=0.0175$) under applied magnetic fields. While an applied in-plane magnetic field of $B=12$ T only modestly su
ppresses superconductivity and enhances static antiferromagnetic order, the two spin resonance modes display disparate responses. The spin resonance mode at higher energy is mildly suppressed, consistent with the field effect in other unconventional superconductors. The spin resonance mode at lower energy, on the other hand, is almost completely suppressed. Such dramatically different responses to applied magnetic field indicate distinct origins of the two spin resonance modes, resulting from the strongly orbital-selective nature of spin excitations and Cooper-pairing in iron-based superconductors.
A new method is presented for measuring terms in the elastoresistivity tensor $m_{ij}$ of single crystal samples with tetragonal symmetry. The technique is applied to a representative underdoped Fe-arsenide, Ba(Fe$_{0.975}$Co$_{0.025}$)$_2$As$_2$, re
vealing an anomalously large and anisotropic elastoresistance in comparison to simple metals. The $m_{66}$ coefficient follows a Curie-Weiss temperature dependence, providing direct evidence that the tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural phase transition that occurs at $T_s$ = 97.5 K in this material is not the result of a true-proper ferro-elastic transition. Rather, the material suffers a pseudo-proper transition for which the lattice strain is not the primary order parameter.
The newly discovered superconductors A2Cr3As3 (A = K, Rb, Cs), with a quasi-one-dimensional crystal structure have attracted considerable interest. The crystal structure consists of double-walled tubes of [Cr3As3]^(2-) that extend along the c-axis. P
reviously we reported measurements of the change in London penetration depth of polycrystalline samples of K2Cr3As3 using a tunnel diode oscillator based technique, which show a linear temperature dependence at low temperatures, giving evidence for line nodes in the superconducting gap. Here we report similar measurements of the penetration depth for polycrystalline Rb2Cr3As3 and several single crystals of K2Cr3As3, prepared by two different research groups. The single crystal measurements show similar behavior to polycrystalline samples down to 0.9-1.2 K, where a downturn is observed in the frequency shift for all single crystal samples. These results give further evidence for nodal superconductivity in K2Cr3As3, which indicates that the superconducting pairing state is unconventional. The different low temperature behavior observed in samples which have deteriorated after being exposed to air, emphasises that it is necessary to properly handle the samples prior to being measured because the A2Cr3As3 compounds are extremely air sensitive and evidence for nodal superconductivity from penetration depth measurements is only observed in the samples which display a sharp superconducting transition. Therefore further work is required to improve the quality of single crystals and to identify the origin of the downturn.
The thermal conductivity of optimally doped NaFe$_{0.972}$Co$_{0.028}$As ($T_c sim$ 20 K) and overdoped NaFe$_{0.925}$Co$_{0.075}$As ($T_c sim$ 11 K) single crystals were measured down to 50 mK. No residual linear term $kappa_0/T$ is found in zero ma
gnetic field for both compounds, which is an evidence for nodeless superconducting gap. Applying field up to $H$ = 9 T ($approx H_{c2}/4$) does not noticeably increase $kappa_0/T$ in NaFe$_{1.972}$Co$_{0.028}$As, which is consistent with multiple isotropic gaps with similar magnitudes. The $kappa_0/T$ of overdoped NaFe$_{1.925}$Co$_{0.075}$As shows a relatively faster field dependence, indicating the increase of the ratio between the magnitudes of different gaps, or the enhancement of gap anisotropy upon increasing doping.
We have measured the magnetic penetration depth of the recently discovered binary superconductor MgB_2 using muon spin rotation and low field $ac$-susceptibility. From the damping of the muon precession signal we find the penetration depth at zero te
mperature is about 85nm. The low temperature penetration depth shows a quadratic temperature dependence, indicating the presence of nodes in the superconducting energy gap.
