Abstract

Consequences of d-wave pairing on the macroscopic properties of a superconductor are analyzed. A decisive experiment to probe the symmetry of the pairing wave function is discussed. It is shown that the magnetic properties of granular high temperature superconductors can be understood on the basis of d-wave superconductivity.
