Compensation of Magnetic Impurity Effect in Superconductors by Radiation Damage

Abstract

Compensation of the reduction of $T_c$ caused by magnetic impurities has been observed as a consequence of radiation damage. Using the recent theory by Kim and Overhauser (KO) we consider the effect of radiation damage on the $T_c$ of superconductors having magnetic impurities. We find a good fitting to the experimental data. It is also pointed out that Gor'kov's formalism with the pairing constraint derived from the Anomalous Green's function leads to KO theory.
