Where does the periodic table of chemical elements end and which processes lead to the existence of heavy elements? Researchers report on experiments to come closer to an answer. They gained insight ...
Scientists are pioneering new material designs that may bring the dream of room-temperature superconductivity closer to reality. Superconductors typically require extremely low temperatures to ...
A graduate student at the University of Illinois Chicago has developed new materials that could help scientists tackle one of the most challenging problems of our time: creating superconductors that ...
For decades, scientists have looked for materials that could make superconductivity -- the lossless transmission of electricity -- possible at higher temperatures, such as room temperature. That would ...
