Tsukuba (Japan), KTH Stockholm (Sweden) and T.D. Lee Institute (China) reports the discovery of unquantized vortices in a bulk multicomponent Ba1-xKxFe2As2 superconductor [1]. The discovery of the unquantized vortices has considerable fundamental importance, providing new insight into the multicomponent nature of superconductivity.

“The brightness map of WASP-18b shows a strong symmetry around the 

substellar point in the east-west  
direction which is in contrast to models for other hot Jupiters. One possible explanation is that the planetary atmosphere effectively interacts with the planetary magnetic field and this suppresses the formation of a strong eastward jet stream. It is exciting to see this effect directly from the thermal map!” said co-author Xianyu Tan, of Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
 
A big step towards uncovering the nature of Dark Energy, the most mysterious source in the Universe, has been made in a recent publication led by Prof. I-Non Chiu at Cheng Kung University in Taiwan, China（former Postdoctoral Fellow in TDLI）and the team at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich, Germany, laying an important foundation for future studies of the Universe.
