3. [I. O. Kulik, Sov. Phys. JETP SPHJAR 0038-5646 22, 841 (1966)] seems to be the first who obtained a formula for the Josephson critical current Ic in an SIS junction taking into account possible spin-flip processes in the insulator layer I. A possibility of the negative critical current Ic follows from this formula.
