The recent discovery of superconductivity in the quasi-one-dimensional compound ${\mathrm{K}}_{2}{\mathrm{Cr}}_{3}{\mathrm{As}}_{3}$, which consists of double-walled tubes of ${[{({\mathrm{Cr}}_{3}{\mathrm{As}}_{3})}^{2\ensuremath{-}}]}^{\ensuremath{\infty}}$ that run along the $c$ axis, has attracted immediate attention as a potential system for studying superconductors with reduced dimensionality. Here we report clear experimental evidence for the unconventional nature of the superconducting …
