Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have created a supersolid, a state of matter that simultaneously behaves like a rigid crystal and a frictionless fluid, at room temperature by pumping ...

The search for materials that can conduct electricity at room temperature without losing energy is one of the greatest and most consequential challenges of modern physics: loss-free power transmission ...

Chinese researchers are making variations of LK99 room temperature superconductor materials with more sulfur and copper in the chemistry. They are publishing results with stronger magnetic indications ...

Interview of a Chinese researcher behind the detection of a weak signal indicating a Meissner effect in near-room-temperature superconductors described the differences in their work. UPDATE from the ...

Giant atoms just got a boost as contenders for making the best quantum simulators and computers, as researchers controlled them for an unprecedentedly long time for a room-temperature experiment. Grab ...

In the plot of many classic science fiction novels, like Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” and H.G. Wells’ “The Invisible Man,” a curious scientist is conducting a ground-breaking laboratory experiment ...
