In their quest to explore and characterize high-temperature superconductors, physicists have mostly focused on a material that is not the absolute highest. That's because that crystal is much easier ...

MINNEAPOLIS / ST. PAUL (03/18/2026) — University of Minnesota Twin Cities researchers working on the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (SuperCDMS) experiment are part of a team who successfully ...

The Large Hadron Collider at CERN uses superconducting magnets to accelerate and direct a particle beam. Discovery of superconductors that work at (or close to) room temperatures would represent a ...

A team of more than 30 physicists and materials scientists published a detailed strategy for reaching room-temperature superconductivity, identifying the most promising material families, the biggest ...

A new scenario for superconductivity is revealed, whereby applying pressure to the Kondo ferromagnet Ce5CoGe2 first induces a ...
