What's up in
An unexpected superconductor was beginning to look like a fluke, but a new theory and a second discovery have revealed that emergent quasiparticles may be behind the effect.
Featuring paradoxical black holes, room-temperature superconductors and a new escape from the prison of time.
Physicists have reached a long-sought goal. The catch is that their room-temperature superconductor requires crushing pressures to keep from falling apart.
Researchers have shown how to effectively transform one material into another using a finely shaped laser pulse.
A new theoretical model may help explain the shocking onset of superconductivity in stacked, twisted carbon sheets.
The stunning emergence of a new type of superconductivity with the mere twist of a carbon sheet has left physicists giddy, and its discoverer nearly overwhelmed.
Experiments suggest that exotic superconducting materials share a “strange metal” state characterized by a quantum speed limit that somehow acts as a fundamental organizing principle.
For Sylvia Serfaty, mathematics is all about truth and beauty and building scientific and human connections.
Suchitra Sebastian’s searches for quantum anomalies have led to the potential discovery of a new building block of matter.
