Theory for Inelastic Neutron Scattering in Orthorhombic High-T_c Superconductors — •Andreas Schnyder¹, Dirk Manske², Christopher Mudry¹, and Manfred Sigrist² — ¹Paul Scherrer Institute, CH-5232 Villigen PSI, Switzerland — ²Institut für Theoretische Physik, ETH Zürich, Hönggerberg, CH-8093 Zürich, Switzerland

Extending our earlier fermiology-based studies on the magnetic susceptibility we analyze the in-plane anisotropy of the spin response in hole-doped high-T_c cuprates [1]. Employing the two-dimensional one-band Hubbard model and a generalized RPA-type theory we consider anisotropic hopping matrix elements (t_x ≠ t_y) and a mixing of d- and s- wave symmetry of the superconducting order parameter in order to describe orthorhombic superconductors. We compare our calculations with available inelastic neutron scattering data on untwinned YBCO and find good agreement [2]. Furthermore, we predict a strongly anisotropic in-plane dispersion of the resonance peak and contrast our results to theories based on stripe formation.
