Abstract

We study the stability of the solution corresponding to the polar phase of superfluid 3He in nematic aerogels with respect to perturbations induced by magnetic impurity scattering. We show that when the perturbation simultaneously breaks axial and time-reversal symmetry, the polar-distorted A phase is realized with the highest transition temperature. Within the proposed model of a p-wave scattering potential, which accounts for the effective spin-orbit interaction between the orbital angular momentum of a scattering quasiparticle and the magnetic moment texture of the scatterer, we solve the eigenvalue and eigenvector problem for the Gor'kov self-consistency equation. Finally, we discuss how our results relate to the available experimental data.
