Phase Fluctuations and Pseudogap Phenomena
Vadim M. Loktev, Rachel M. Quick, Sergei G. Sharapov
This article reviews the current status of precursor superconducting phase fluctuations as a possible mechanism for pseudogap formation in high-temperature superconductors. In part…

The Coleman-Weinberg effective potential in the theory of superconductivity
Rachel M. Quick, Sergei G. Sharapov
A quasi two-dimensional non-relativistic four-Fermi theory is studied at finite temperatures in the next-to-leading order approximation using the Coleman-Weinberg effective potenti…

Comment on ``Specific Heat and Shape Transitions in Light sd Nuclei''
B. J. Cole, H. G. Miller, R. M. Quick
This comment re-examines the origin of structure seen in the computed specific heat of finite nuclei. In a recent paper, Civitarese and Schvellinger suggest that such structure is…
