We present a systematic study of the response properties of two-band (multi-gap) superconductors with spin-singlet (s-wave) pairing correlations, which are assumed to be caused by both intraband (lambda_{ii}, i=1,2) and interband (lambda_{12}) pairing interactions. In this first of three planned publications we concentrate on the properties of such superconducting systems in global and local thermodynamic equilibrium, the latter including weak perturbations in the stationary long-wavelength limit. The discussion of global thermodynamic equilibrium must include the solution (analytical in the Ginzburg-Landau and the low temperature limit) of the coupled self-consistency equations for the two energy gaps Delta_i(T), i=1,2. These solutions allow to study non-universal behavior of the two relevant BCS-Muhlschlegel parameters, namely the specific heat discontinuity Delta C/C_N and the zero temperature gaps Delta_i(0)/pi k_B T_c, i=1,2. The discussion of a local equilibrium situation includes the calculation of the supercurrent density as a property of the condensate, and the calculation of both the specific heat capacity and the spin susceptibility as properties of the gas of thermal excitations in the spirit of a microscopic two-fluid description. Non-monotonic behavior in the temperature dependences of the gaps and all these local response functions is predicted to occur particularly for very small values of the interband pair-coupling constant lambda_{12}.
A two-fluid model is proposed to describe the transport properties of granular superconductors. Using the resistively shunted junction model and some aspects of the two-level system theory, a statistical model is developed which takes into account th
We present a microscopic study of the behavior of the order parameters near boundaries of a two-band superconducting material, described by the standard tight-binding Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer model. We find superconducting surface states. The relati
A model of a clean two-band s-wave superconductor with cylindrical Fermi surfaces, different Fermi velocities v_{1,2}, and a general 2x2 coupling matrix V_{alpha beta} is used to study the order parameter distribution in vortex lattices. The Eilenber
Evidence from NMR of a two-component spin system in cuprate high-$T_c$ superconductors is shown to be paralleled by similar evidence from the electronic entropy so that a two-component quasiparticle fluid is implicated. We propose that this two-compo
Based on a two-band model, we study the electronic Raman scattering intensity in both normal and superconducting states of iron-pnictide superconductors. For the normal state, due to the match or mismatch of the symmetries between band hybridization
