SYMB 1.5: Invited Talk

Unconventional superconductivity in strongly correlated materials — •Jörg Schmalian — Department of Physics and Ames Laboratory, Iowa State University

In this talk we discuss the emergence of unconventional superconductivity in materials with strong electronic correlations. A combination of first principle based electronic structure calculations, diagrammatic many body theory and strong coupling approaches will be employed to discuss a broad range of correlated materials. In particular, we analyze the role of strong local interactions versus long-wavelength collective excitations in the many body description of organic charge transfer salts, iron based superconductors and copper oxides.
