Microwave Absorption (MA) was discovered in HTSC as a zero field „EPR” line

MA results from by Cooper pair breaking when fluxes penetrate through a Josephson weak links (JWL)

Dynamics of the field dependent MA implies, that flux flow, its pinning and creep by: 1o defects and 2o weak contacts give the nonresonant AC dissipation.

CONCLUSIONS

1. FLUX MOTION GENERATING QP LEADS TO NONRESONANT AC MAGNETIC FIELD DISSIPATION

2. EPR OF NORMAL ELECTRONS (QP) IS RELATED TO LOCALIZED SPIN STATE ON PARAMAGNETIC CENTERS gg0 SHOWING THAT CONDUCTING CARRIERS ARE STRONGLY CORRELATED ELECTRONS

Low field study of EPR and paramagnetic fluctuation can be used to study interaction between

local pairs (boson liquid) and quasiparticles (quasi Fermi liquid).
