Abstract

We theoretically consider the upper critical magnetic field, perpendicular to a conducting axis, in a triplet quasi-one-dimensional superconductor. In particular, we demonstrate that, at high magnetic fields, the orbital effects against superconductivity in a magnetic field are reversible and, therefore, superconductivity can be restored. It is important that the above mentioned quantum limit can be achieved in a presumably triplet quasi-one-dimensional superconductor Li0.9Mo6O17 [J.-F. Mercure et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 187003 (2012).] at laboratory available pulsed magnetic fields of the order of H=500700T.
