Abstract

The topology and k-spatial symmetry of zeroes of the gap function provide useful information on the superconductive order parameter. Besides direct, i. e. spectroscopic probes of the nodal structure, bulk methods are usually used as an integral probe of the low-energetic excitation spectrum at low temperature. In the following sections frequently applied methods are discussed.
