Abstract
We study theoretically the effect of impurity scattering in f-wave (or E_{2u}) superconductors. The quasi-particle density of states of f-wave superconductor is very similar to the one for d-wave superconductor as in hole-doped high T_c cuprates. Also in spite of anisotropy in Delta(k), both the normalized superfluid density and the thermal conductivity is completely isotropic.
