Generic thermodynamics of condensates with extremely small superfluid density ---Application to UTe2_2 and hidden second phase transition---

Published 17 Sep 2026 in cond-mat.supr-con | (2609.19834v1)

Abstract: Motivated by recent experimental findings on UTe<em>2<em>2 via NMR and specific heat experiments, we theoretically explore the thermodynamic signatures of condensates with small superfluid density and characterize their physical properties. We identify the hidden superconducting phase A2A_2 composed of spin-up Cooper pairs at lower temperature (TT) and field (HH) under ambient pressure of UTe2_2 and show that A2A_2 reappears at higher HH for all three principal field directions, aa, bb, and cc-axis. The phase transition lines from the A1A_1 phase with spin down pairs to the A2A_2 phase in the HH-TT plane are all horizontal in common, implying a universal physical origin due to the originating from the magnetic-energy gain of the spin-up pairing state with increasing magnetic field. This multiple-phase diagram is extended to these under pressure (PP), resulting in a simple picture based on non-unitary spin-triplet pairing symmetry <sup>3B</sup></em>3u<sup>3B</sup></em>{3u}, which enables us to consistently capture the evolution of the superconducting phases throughout the entire HH-TT-PP phase space.
