Abstract

We review the explanation for resonant neutron scattering experiments in $Y B a_{2} C u_{3} O_{6 + δ}$ and $B i_{2} S r_{2} C a_{2} O_{8 + δ}$ materials from the point of view of triplet excitation in the particle-particle channel, the pi excitation. Relation of these resonances to the superconducting condensation energy and their role in stabilizing the superconducting state is discussed. Due to the superconducting fluctuations, the pi resonance may appear as a broad peak above Tc. Analogue problem to the pi excitation for the case of s-wave pairing, the eta excitation, is considered in the strong coupling limit with an emphasis on the resonance precursors in a state with no long range order.
