Chinese researchers have proposed a theory for understanding the LK99 superconductor. This paper assumes the south Korean LK99 claims are correct for critical temperature and critical current. The ...

Never say never - or for that matter, "insoluble." That's the philosophy of Professor of Physics Leon Cooper, whose theory of superconductivity - once thought to be an insoluble, or impossible to ...

Scientists at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have confirmed the existence of a massless particle, long theorized ...

A newly mapped form of superconductivity in uranium ditelluride emerges only under extremely strong magnetic fields, defying long-held expectations about how superconductors behave.

Channai and Canadian researchers presented a theory for LK99 superconductivity. They have presented a couple of scenarios, keeping solid state and quantum chemical constraints in mind and suggested ...

Physicists in China have unveiled new clues to the origins of high-temperature superconductivity in an iron-based material just a single unit-cell thick. Led by Qi-Kun Xue and Lili Wang at Tsinghua ...

Scientists link quantum theory with superconductivity, offering a way to predict materials that could enable resistance-free power at higher temperatures. (Nanowerk News) Electricity flows through ...

For three decades, one quiet crystal has sat at the center of a fierce argument about how exotic superconductors really work. Now a new set of experiments has upended the favored explanation, forcing ...

Researchers combined high magnetic fields with X-ray scattering to reveal the connection between superconducting vortices (black circles), charge density waves (red wiggles), and spin density waves ...

Despite the headline, this isn’t really a story about superconductivity—at least not the superconductivity that people care ...
