Strange ARPES line shapes and ECFL

Ever since high temperature superconductors have been discovered by scientists, they have been quite baffling, to say the least. The central question is whether the standard textbook theories that we know and love already are applicable to these fascinating materials. The general sense is that those standard theories must be augmented to a great extent, if not replaced completely. Why? It is because of many puzzling experimental results that defy a proper understanding. ARPES results are among the most mysterious!
