Abstract
We use the functional renormalization group method to study a three-orbital model for superconducting . Although the pairing symmetry is found to be a chiral wave, the atomic spin-orbit coupling induces near nodes for quasiparticle excitations. Our theory explains a major experimental puzzle between a -wavelike feature observed in thermal experiments and the chiral -wave triplet pairing revealed in nuclear-magnetic resonance and the Kerr effect.
