Pseudogap in ${YBa}_{2}$ ${Cu}_{3}$ $O_{6 + δ}$ is not bounded by a line of phase transitions: Thermodynamic evidence

J. R. Cooper, J. W. Loram, I. Kokanović, J. G. Storey, and J. L. Tallon

Phys. Rev. B 89, 201104(R) (2014) - Published 9 May, 2014

The authors expand on a recent Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy study of YBa $_{2}$ Cu $_{3}$ O $_{6 + δ}$ , which infers a line of phase transitions bounding the pseudogap phase, and argue that that scenario is not supported by thermodynamic evidence.
