This paper appears to have some problem in the data analysis since it reports λ and ξ obtained by comparative analysis using the m -London model and two GL models (analytical and iterative) that are very close to each other, while it demonstrates a poor agreement of B (r) between these three models for a common set of λ and ξ.

In this paper, the authors argue that the QP's are delocalized in accordance with the shrinkage of the vortex core radius. They further maintain that the situation is common in the case of V3 Si (see Fig. 4 of this paper). However, we note that the field dependence of λ in V3 Si as reported in their previous work (Ref.) appears to be inconsistent with their interpretation; it remains independent of the field for μ0 H>1.5 T where the core radius undergoes shrinkage.
