An unconventional superconducting state was recently discovered in UTe2, where spin-triplet superconductivity emerges from the paramagnetic normal state of a heavy fermion material. The coexistence of magnetic fluctuations and superconductivity, together with the crystal structure of this material, suggest that a unique set of symmetries, magnetic properties, and topology underlie the superconducting state. Here, we report observations of a non-zero polar Kerr effect and of two transitions in the specific heat upon entering the superconducting state, which together suggest that the superconductivity in UTe2 is characterized by a two-component order parameter that breaks time reversal symmetry. These data place constraints on the symmetries of the order parameter and inform the discussion on the presence of topological superconductivity in UTe2.

In this report we present our study of two-dimensional Heisenberg magnets based on the picture of thermally excited skyrmions. The local order parameter, energy spectrum of elementary spin excitations above the skyrmion background, the skyrmion averaged radius and static magnetic susceptibility were obtained by the Green functions method. There was calculated the rate of nuclear relaxation caused by the interaction of nuclear spins with above mentioned spin excitations. The contribution of Moriya–Dsyloshinskii and anisotropic symmetric interactions into EPR line was considered. A comparison with NMR and neutron scattering experiments in cuprates and with the results obtained by other methods is given. We discuss the consequences of an interaction between skyrmions as the result of the spin fluctuations.

ABSTRACT In the Ginzburg–Landau limit, a possible texture without singular cores in a rotating neutron spin-triplet superfluid is studied. The lattice of non-singular vortices is constructed with a vorticity diffusely distributed over the entire unit cell. The upper limit of the free energy associated with this structure is estimated, and the result shows that non-singular vortices are more preferable in the core of rotating neutron stars than ordinary linear singular vortices. The order parameter of the studied neutron system belongs to the unitary class. This implies that the superfluid under consideration does not have spin polarization and the core-less 3P2 vortices do not have magnetization, which makes electron scattering by vortices ineffective. For the same reason, pinning with flux tubes is also suppressed. This can affect the hydrodynamics of superfluid neutron stars.
