Abstract

We study the sensitivity of T_c and T^* to low fields, H, within the pseudogap state using a BCS-based approach extended to arbitrary coupling. We find that T^* and T_c, which are of the same superconducting origin, have very different H dependences. This is due to the pseudogap, \Delta_{pg}, which is present at the latter, but not former temperature. Our results for the coherence length \xi fit well with existing experiments.We predict that very near the insulator \xi will rapidly increase.
