Intrinsic mechanism for magnetothermal conductivity oscillations in spin-orbit-coupled nodal superconductors

We describe a mechanism by which the longitudinal thermal conductivity κ_{xx}, measured in an in-plane magnetic field, oscillates as a function of field angle in layered nodal superconductors. These oscillations occur when the spin-orbit splitting at the nodes is larger than the nodal scattering rat...
