In a paper published recently in the Journal of Applied Physics, an international team of scientists from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Argonne National Laboratory and Deutsches ...

(US Dept. of Energy/Flickr) Superconductive materials could revolutionize electronics – if only they weren't so fussy.

Hydrogen (like many of us) acts weird under pressure. Theory predicts that when crushed by the weight of more than a million times our atmosphere, this light, abundant, normally gaseous element first ...

Researchers think they have a foundational tool for the thorny problem of how to measure and image the behavior of hydride superconductors at high pressure. They report creatively integrating quantum ...

An artist’s rendering of nitrogen vacancy centers in a diamond anvil cell, which can detect the expulsion of magnetic fields by a high-pressure superconductor. Hydrogen (like many of us) acts weird ...

Superconductivity is the ability to transmit energy without any resistance when an object is cooled to a certain temperature. For more than 30 years, that temperature was 220 degrees Fahrenheit below ...
