Superconductivity:  An analogue of superfluid 3He

Maurice Rice1

Two letters to Nature1,2 published in the past few months, and one in this issue3 (page 658), report experiments that uniquely specify the unconventional superconductivity in strontium ruthenate (Sr2RuO4). They establish that it conforms to long-held views on how superconductivity driven by electron-electron (rather than electron-phonon) interactions should behave.
