RESUMO
The origin of superconductivity in the iron pnictides has been attributed to antiferromagnetic spin ordering that occurs in close combination with a structural transition, but there are also proposals that link superconductivity to orbital ordering. We used bulk-sensitive laser angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on BaFe(2)(As(0.65)P(0.35))(2) and Ba(0.6)K(0.4)Fe(2)As(2) to elucidate the role of orbital degrees of freedom on the electron-pairing mechanism. In strong contrast to previous studies, an orbital-independent superconducting gap magnitude was found for the hole Fermi surfaces. Our result is not expected from the superconductivity associated with spin fluctuations and nesting, but it could be better explained invoking magnetism-induced interorbital pairing, orbital fluctuations, or a combination of orbital and spin fluctuations. Regardless of the interpretation, our results impose severe constraints on theories of iron pnictides.
RESUMO
Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) expressing both surface monocytoid antigen and IgM (kappa) was reported. A 62-year-old male was admitted to our hospital in September 21, 1989 because of leukocytosis. Physical examinations showed axillary and inguinal lymphadenopathy but no hepato-splenomegaly. The leukocyte count was 12,600/microliters with 73% of abnormal cells like large lymphocytes which had abundant cytoplasm and hairy appearance under phase microscopy. They had ruffles with microvilli under electron microscope. Bone marrow puncture showed normocellular marrow with 71.2% of abnormal cells similar to the peripheral blood. Surface markers were CD11b+, CD21+, HLA-DR+, Tac- and IgM (kappa). They were positive for ++acid phosphatase staining, but negative for peroxidase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining. He was diagnosed as Japanese type HCL. HCL expressing both surface monocytoid antigen and IgM is rare and the clinical features of our case are compared with those reported in Japan.
