Coexistence of p-wave Cooper pairing and ferromagnetism

Abstract
A two-band model for coexistence of p-wave superconductivity with localized ferromagnetism is studied using the equation of motion approach. It shows that ferromagnetic and superconducting states enhance each other but in a different way from that of the one-band model. The Curie temperature is not only determined by the exchange interactions between localized spins, but also can be increased with the coupling between electrons and spins, and with the p-wave Cooper-pairing interaction. These results are complementary to those of the one-band model, which suggest that the Curie temperature is unlikely to ever be below the superconducting transition temperature.
