Abstract

We report new theoretical results and analysis for the transport properties of superconducting UPt₃ based on the leading models for the pairing symmetry. We use Fermi surface data and the measured inelastic scattering rate to show that the low-temperature thermal conductivity and transverse sound attenuation in the A- and B-phase of UPt₃ are in excellent agreement with pairing states belonging to the two-dimensional orbital E_2u representation.
