Abstract

The basic disagreement between theory and experiment for the susceptibility of a dirty superconductor near the transition temperature lies in the failure to properly treat the high-energy fluctuations. The ad hoc approach of Nam is shown to be unsatisfactory, and the agreement with experiment spurious.
