Even Parity, Orbital Singlet, and Spin Triplet Pairing for SuperconductingLaFeAsO1xFx

Abstract
We examine the spin-triplet superconducting state of even parity mediated by ferromagnetic Hund’s coupling between electrons in two almost degenerate orbital bands. This state may be realized in the recently discovered LaFeAsO1xFx. It is robust against orbital-independent disorder. The splitting of the orbital degeneracy suppresses superconductivity and leads to an anisotropic spectrum in the Bogoliubov quasiparticle. The former predicts a strong pressure dependence of Tc and the latter predicts Fermi pockets, which may be tested in angle resolved photoemission spectra.
