Abstract

We propose that a Cooper pair in a high-Tc superconductor might be in fact a bound system \rm eex x of two electrons, a particle \rm x and its antiparticle. We assume \rm eex x is more massive than two free electrons. We observe that \rm eex x should be stable in a solid if it is in a low enough state in the solid. A solid which admits such a low state for \rm eex x has some properties which seem closely related to the behavior of HTS materials. The interaction of the \rm x-particle which binds the four particles into \rm eex x has been discussed. We also discuss the scale of the mass excess of \rm eex x relative to two free electrons. An experiment designed to detect a bound system of two electrons with a mass excess has been proposed.
