Abstract
We have analysed data from angle-resolved photo-emission spectroscopy, Fourier transform scanning tunneling spectroscopy, and low-temperature thermal conductivity for optimally doped Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+y in order to discriminate between d-wave and extended s-wave pairing symmetry. The combined data are inconsistent with d-wave symmetry, but quantitatively consistent with extended s-wave symmetry with eight line nodes. We also explain all phase-sensitive experiments in a consistent manner.
