Polarized-neutron diffraction experiments (PND) have revealed that the pseudogap state of the cuprates exhibits unusual intra-unit-cell (IUC) magnetism. At a qualitative level, the data indicate a moment direction that is neither perpendicular nor parallel to the CuO2 layers, yet an accurate measurement of a structurally simple compound has been lacking. Here we report PND results with unprecedented accuracy for the IUC magnetic order in the simple-tetragonal single-CuO$_2$-layer compound HgBa2CuO$_{4+{delta}}$. At the transition temperature, we find evidence for magnetic critical scattering. Deep in the ordered state, we determine the moment direction to be 70{deg} $pm$ 10{deg} away from the normal to the CuO$_2$ layers, which rules out both purely planar loop currents and high-symmetry Dirac multipoles, the two most prominent theoretical proposals for the microscopic origin of the IUC magnetism. However, the data are consistent with Dirac multipoles of lower symmetry or, alternatively, with a particular configuration of loop currents that flow on the faces of the CuO$_6$ octahedra.
Using high-energy diffraction we show that a 4-unit-cell superstructure, q0=(1/4,0,0), along the shorter Cu-Cu bonds coexists with superconductivity in optimally doped YBCO. A complex set of anisotropic atomic displacements on neighboring CuO chain p
Within the complex phase diagram of the hole-doped cuprates, seizing the nature of the mysterious pseudo-gap phase is essential to unravel the microscopic origin of high-temperature superconductivity. Below the pseudo-gap temperature $rm T^{star}$, e
We present an inelastic neutron scattering study of the structurally simple single-layer compound HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4+delta}$ close to optimal doping ($T_c approx 96$ K). A well-defined antiferromagnetic resonance with energy $omega_r = 56$ meV ($approx
Understanding high-temperature superconductivity requires a prior knowledge of the nature of the enigmatic pseudogap metallic state, out of which the superconducting state condenses. In addition to the electronic orders involving charge degrees of fr
Ultrahigh resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy with low-energy photons is used to study the detailed momentum dependence of the well-known nodal kink dispersion anomaly of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+{delta}. We find that the kinks location transit
