Superconducting gap anisotropy at least an order of magnitude larger than that of the conventional superconductors has been observed in the a-b plane of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. For samples with T(c) of 88 K, the gap size reaches a maximum of approximately 20 meV along the Cu-O bond direction, and a minimum of much smaller or vanishing magnitude 45-degrees away. The experimental data are discussed within the context of various theoretical models. In particular, a detailed comparison with what is expected from a superconductor with a d(x2-y2) order parameter is carried out, yielding a consistent picture.
