There have been two different proposals for the spin-triplet order parameter of the superconducting phase in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$; an $f$-wave order parameter and the multigap model where some of the bands have the line node. In an effort to…
A small number of superconductors are believed to exhibit intrinsic spin triplet pairing, and they are often discussed in terms of a simple, $^3$He-like picture where ferromagnetic spin fluctuations provide the "glue". However, in some…
