Abstract
Pressure studies of the thermodynamics of under magnetic fields and have been made up to . We recorded the signature of the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state for all pressures when . Also remarkably, the FFLO regime suddenly expands for . With the help of a microscopic theory for -wave superconductivity, we have extracted the gyromagnetic ratio and the Fermi velocities and . Our study is the first evidence for the existence of the FFLO state away from the influence of the antiferromagnetic fluctuations. We find a close parallel between the phase diagram of and the phase diagram of the high- cuprates, where is the hole concentration.
