 cription: The iron-based superconductors\, discovered a few years ago\, ho
 ld a great promise\, from both a technological and a scientific point of v
 iew. With an unusually high maximum critical temperature exceeding 50K\, s
 econd only to that of the so-called copper-oxide high-temperature supercon
 ductors\, they are likely to belong to a class of \"unconventional\" super
 conductors\, whose mechanism lies beyond the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer the
 ory of phonon-mediated pairing. A crucial step to unveil the mechanism of 
 superconductivity in these materials is to understand the structure of the
 ir order parameter. In this talk\, I will discuss theoretical investigatio
 ns of the iron-based superconductors\, which indicate an exotic order para
 meter with an internal sign change. Experimentally\, detecting such a sign
  change poses a significant challenge. I will show how a recent intriguing
  experiment\, which shows fractional flux quantization in a composite supe
 rconducting loop\, can be intepreted as evidence for a sign-changing order
  parameter.
