A special type of laser spectroscopy has been used by researchers in Australia to measure the velocities of atoms in caesium vapour. The technique could allow researchers to infer both the temperature ...

An abrupt transition in the electrical resistance of graphite at 350 K could be a signature of superconductivity occurring well above room temperature (293 K). That is the claim of Pablo Esquinazi and ...

Elena Hassinger’s experiments create surroundings that are colder than outer space. Last year, the expert in low-temperature physics and her colleagues succeeded in discovering the unconventional ...

Researchers at Shanghai University have developed a physics-constrained, data-efficient artificial intelligence framework ...

A novel technique for studying vortices in quantum fluids has been developed by physicists. Turbulence in quantum systems, for example in superfluid helium 4, takes place on microscopic scales, and so ...

The surprising discovery of superconductivity in layered iron-based materials, with transition temperatures climbing as high as 55 K, has led to thousands of publications on this subject over the past ...

When some materials are cooled to a certain temperature, they lose electric resistance, becoming superconductors. When some materials are cooled to a certain temperature, they lose electric resistance ...

Melting gold normally requires temperatures upwards of 1,064° C (1,947° F), but physics is never quite that simple. A team of researchers has now found a way to melt gold at room temperature using an ...
