* ABSTRACT
Comprehensive magnetic field (H) dependence of the low-temperature specific heat C(T,H) in NaxCoO2•yH2O is presented. At H=0, a very sharp anomaly was observed at T=4.7 K indicating the existence of bulk superconductivity. There exists the T2 term in C(T,H=0)) in the superconducting state manifesting the line nodal superconducting order parameter. The superconducting volume fraction is estimated to be 26.6 % to 50% based on the consideration of entropy balance at Tc for the second-order superconducting phase transition. The Hc2(T) Shows an abrupt change of slope, which could be due to either anisotropy of Hc2 or the transition to a second superconducting phase.
