A new integrating understanding of superconductivity and superfluidity

Abstract

An integrating theoretical scenario of superconductivity and superfluidity has been built. It reduces to the special BCS superconductivity mechanism for conventional superconductor and to a new theory for high transition temperature superconductors, which can explain the recent angle-resolved photoemission experiments and the earlier nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate experiments. Both experiments suggest the existence of pairing carriers and the normal state energy gap well above the transition temperature of superconductivity. A powerful and workable experiment designed to validate this scenario is also put forward for the experimenter.
