A New Landscape of Multiple Dispersion Kinks in a High-T c Cuprate Superconductor

Abstract Conventional superconductivity is caused by electron-phonon coupling. The discovery of high-temperature superconductors raised the question of whether such strong electron-phonon coupling is realized in cuprates. Strong coupling with some collective excitation mode has been indicated by a d...
