Superconductivity and non-Fermi liquid behavior near a nematic quantum critical point

Using determinantal quantum Monte Carlo, we compute the properties of a lattice model with spin 1/2 itinerant electrons tuned through a quantum phase transition to an Ising nematic phase. The nematic fluctuations induce superconductivity with a broad dome in the superconducting T[subscript c] enclos...
