Quantifying structural damage from self-irradiation in a plutonium superconductor (2007)
Booth, C. H., Bauer, E. D., Daniel, M., Wilson, R. E., Mitchell, J. N., Morales, L. A., ...
The 18.5 K superconductor PuCoGa5 has many unusual properties, including those due to damage induced by self-irradiation. The superconducting transition temperature decreases sharply with time,...
Ohishi, K., Heffner, R. H., Morris, G. D., Bauer, E. D., Graf, M. J., ...
We have measured the temperature dependence and magnitude of the superfluid density $\rho_{\rm s}(T)$ via the magnetic field penetration depth $\lambda(T)$ in PuCoGa$_5$ (nominal critical temperature...

Superconductivity in Actinide Materials (2005)
Thompson, J. D., Sarrao, J. L., Curro, N. J., Bauer, E. D., Morales, L. A., Wastin, F., ...
Actinide materials play a special role in condensed matter physics, spanning behaviours of itinerant d-electron and localized 4f-electron materials. An intermediate state, found notably in Pu-based...
The symmetry of the superconducting order parameter in PuCoGa$_5$ (2005)
Morris, G. D, Heffner, R. H., Bauer, E. D., Morales, L. A., Sarrao, J. S., Fluss, M. J., ...
The symmetry of the superconducting order parameter in single-crystalline PuCoGa$_5$ ($T_{\rm c} = 18.5$ K) is investigated via zero- and transverse- field muon spin relaxation ($\mu$SR)...
Photoemission and the Electronic Structure of PuCoGa5 (2003)
Joyce, J. J., Wills, J. M., Durakiewicz, T., Butterfield, M. T., Guziewicz, E., Sarrao, J. L., ...
The electronic structure of the first Pu based superconductor PuCoGa5 is explored using photoelectron spectroscopy and a novel theoretical scheme. Exceptional agreement between calculation and...
On The Nature of the 5f States in Delta Plutonium (2003)
Wills, J. M., Eriksson, O., Delin, A., Andersson, P. H., Joyce, J. J., Durakiewicz, T., ...
We present a theoretical model of the electronic structure of delta-Pu that is consistent with many of the electronic structure related properties of this complex metal. In particular we show that...
