As a consequence, positive giant magnetoresistance and giant corrections to the Hall coefficient arise. We obtain very good agreement between this theory and recent positive giant magnetoresistance experiments, while making specific material-dependent predictions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "1997-10-26T23:43:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "weak disorder", "material-dependent paramagnon interaction", "finite magnetic field", "hall coefficient arise", "positive giant magnetoresistance experiments" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1995cond.mat..9073K" } } }
