The site-selective nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate T1^{-1} is theoretically studied inside a vortex core in a chiral p-wave superconductor within the framework of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. It is found that T1^{-1} at the vortex center depends on the sense of the chirality relative to the sense of the magnetic field. Our numerical result shows a characteristic difference in T1^{-1} between the two chiral states, k_x + i k_y and k_x - i k_y under the magnetic field.

For a noncentrosymmetric superconductor such as CePt3Si, we consider a Cooper pairing model with a two-component order parameter composed of spin-singlet and spin-triplet pairing components. We demonstrate that such a model on a qualitative level a ccounts for experimentally observed features of the temperature dependence of the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1, namely a peak just below Tc and a line-node gap behavior at low temperatures.
The elementary vortex pinning potential is studied in a chiral p-wave superconductor with a pairing d=z(k_x + i k_y) on the basis of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. An analytical investigation and numerical results are presented to sh ow that the vortex pinning potential is dependent on whether the vorticity and chirality are parallel or antiparallel. Mutual cancellation of the vorticity and chirality around a vortex is physically crucial to the effect of the pinning center inside the vortex core.
We studied strong-coupling effect upon an isolated vortex in a two-dimensional chiral p-wave superconductor. We solved the Eilenberger equation for the quasiclassical Greens functions and the Eliashberg equation with single mode Einstein boson self-c onsistently. We calculated the free-energy of each obtained vortex, and found that a non-axisymmetric vortex metastably exists in some situation.
Much excitement surrounds the possibility that strontium ruthenate exhibits chiral p-wave superconducting order. Such order would be a solid state analogue of the A phase of He-3, with the potential for exotic physics relevant to quantum computing. W e take a critical look at the evidence for such time-reversal symmetry breaking order. The possible superconducting order parameter symmetries and the evidence for and against chiral p-wave order are reviewed, with an emphasis on the most recent theoretical predictions and experimental observations. In particular, attempts to reconcile experimental observations and theoretical predictions for the spontaneous supercurrents expected at sample edges and domain walls of a chiral p-wave superconductor and for the polar Kerr effect, a key signature of broken time-reversal symmetry, are discussed.
We study the effects of non-magnetic impurity scattering on the Andreev bound states (ABS) in an isolated vortex in a two-dimensional chiral p-wave superconductor numerically. We incorporate the impurity scattering effects into the quasiclassical Eil enberger formulation through the self-consistent $t$-matrix approximation. Within this scheme, we calculate the local density of states (LDOS) around two types of vortices: parallel (anti-parallel) vortex where the phase winding of the pair-potential coming from vorticity and that coming from chirality have the same (opposite) sign. When the scattering phase-shift $delta_0$ of each impurity is small, we find that impurities affect differently low energy quasiparticle spectrum around the two types of vortex in a way similar to that in the Born limit ($delta_0rightarrow 0$). For a larger $delta_0(leq pi/2)$ however we find that ABS in the vortex is strongly suppressed by impurities for both types of vortex. We found that there are some correlations between the suppression of ABS near vortex cores and the low energy density of states due to impurity bands in the bulk.
