Two distinct quasiparticle inelastic scattering rates in the $t-J$ model and their relevance for high-$T_c$ cuprates superconductors

The recent findings about two distinct quasiparticle inelastic scattering rates in angle-dependent magnetoresistance (ADMR) experiments in overdoped high-$T_c$ cuprates superconductors have motivated many discussions related to the link between superconductivity, pseudogap, and transport properties in these materials. After computing dynamical self-energy corrections in the framework of the $t-J$ model the inelastic scattering rate was introduced as usual. Two distinct scattering rates were obtained showing the main features observed in ADMR experiments. Predictions for underdoped cuprates are discussed. The implicances of these two scattering rates on the resistivity were also studied as a function of doping and temperature and confronted with experimental measurements.
