Abstract
The dynamic spin susceptibility, , has been measured over the energy range of for overdoped . Incommensurate (IC) spin excitations are observed at 8 K for all superconducting samples for with peaking at . The IC peaks at 6 meV become smaller in intensity with increasing and, finally, become unobservable for a sample with which has no bulk superconductivity. The maximum decreases linearly with (onset) in the overdoped region, implying a direct cooperative relation between the spin fluctuations and the superconductivity.
