Abstract

We study the properties of a quantum critical point which develops in a BCS superconductor when pair breaking suppresses the transition temperature to zero. The pair fluctuations are characterized by a dynamical critical exponent z=2. Except for very low temperatures, anomalous contribution to the conductivity is proportional to T in three dimensions, but to 1/T in two dimensions. At lowest temperatures, the conductivity correction varies as T1/4 in three dimensions, and as ln(1/T) in two.
