Abstract = {{The concept that superconductivity competes with other orders in cuprate
   superconductors has become increasingly apparent, but obtaining direct
   evidence with bulk-sensitive probes is challenging. We have used
   resonant soft x-ray scattering to identify two-dimensional charge
   fluctuations with an incommensurate periodicity of similar to 3.2
   lattice units in the copper-oxide planes of the superconductors
   (Y,Nd)Ba2Cu3O6+x, with hole concentrations of 0.09 to 0.13 per planar Cu
   ion. The intensity and correlation length of the fluctuation signal
   increase strongly upon cooling down to the superconducting transition
   temperature (T-c); further cooling below T-c abruptly reverses the
   divergence of the charge correlations. In combination with earlier
   observations of a large gap in the spin excitation spectrum, these data
   indicate an incipient charge density wave instability that competes with
   superconductivity.}},
