Together with the spin-triplet wave functions the real-space wave function then is symmetric. Considering interaction effects the order parameter is found to have A_{1g} symmetry consistent with a number of experimental observations. The sensitivity of the material on non-magnetic impurities follows in a straightforward manner from the orbital-singlet configuration.4 pages REVTEX, 3 figuresStrongly Correlated ElectronsSuperconductivitytext
