Abstract

We present a theoretical study of restoration of superconductivity in the form of the triplet reentrant superconducting phase in a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) conductor. Substitution of known band and superconducting parameters of the presumably triplet Q1D superconductor Li0.9Mo6O17 into our theoretical equations shows that such restoration can happen in non-destructive pulsed high magnetic field of the order of H100T. We investigate in detail how small inclinations of a direction of a magnetic field from its best experimental geometry decrease the superconducting transition temperature of the reentrant phase, which is important for its possible experimental discovery.
