Abstract

By comparing the experimental results obtained in the study of the electron transport and magnetic properties of samples of lightly doped strontium substituted lanthanum cuprates and the results of the theoretical analysis in the reduced elastic scattering space (RPS), we constructed the classical self-consistent strong-binding energy density profile in the superconducting mode for this material. It is found that the imaginary part of the RPS can be zero, almost constant, or strongly self-consistent, depending on the Sr impurity concentration x. Supposing the Sr impurity concentration is very dilute, a constant imaginary part of the elastic scattering cross-section brings a sub-melted coalescent superconducting metallic state similar to the constant lifetime in the normal state, except for the unitary narrow, sharp peak at zero frequency. A broadening of the peak occurs for optimal concentration of Sr atoms, mixing a more significant amount of nodal fermion quasiparticles with Cooper pairs and making the energy density profile strongly self-consistent dependent.
