Low energy phenomenology of the overdoped cuprates: Viability of the Landau-BCS paradigm

We use dirty d-wave BCS theory to calculate absolute superfluid density, residual specific heat, Volovik effect, and thermal conductivity and compare to experiments on the cuprate superconductor La_{2−x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4}, showing that the theory provides a surprisingly good account of the data across th...
