Electronic band structure of triplet superconductor UTe<sub>2</sub> from angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy

Invited

Abstract

The compound UTe2 has recently been shown to realize spin triplet superconductivity from a non-magnetic normal state. This has sparked intense research activity, including theoretical analyses that suggest the superconducting order parameter to be topologically nontrivial. However, the underlying electronic band structure is a critical factor for these analyses, and remains poorly understood. I will present high resolution angle resolved photoemission (ARPES) measurements covering multiple planes in the 3D Brillouin zone of UTe2, revealing distinct Fermi pockets from two light electron bands and one heavy band. Electronic symmetries and many-body ordering instabilities will be discussed in comparison with numerical simulations.
