Hi
In my book it says that a Cooper pair is formed by a single electron state and its time-reversed counterpart. The way I have understood it, a Cooper pair is formed by the states
[tex]
\left| {k \uparrow } \right\rangle \quad \text{and} \quad \left| { - k \downarrow } \right\rangle.
[/tex]
Where does the time-reversal come into play?Niles.
