Unusual mechanism of vortex viscosity generated by mixed normal modes in superconductors with broken time reversal symmetry

We show that under certain conditions multiband superconductors with broken time-reversal symmetry have a new vortex viscosity-generating mechanism which is different from that in conventional superconductors. It appears due to the existence of mixed superfluid phase-density mode inside vortex core. This new contribution is dominant near the time reversal symmetry breaking phase transition. The results could be relevant for three band superconductor $Ba_{1-x}K_{x}Fe_2As_2$.
