The reins of the Applied Superconductivity Center (ASC), hosted at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (CSA CSM), have been handed over to scientist and professor Lance Cooley, a CSA board director. Cooley takes over for his longtime mentor David Larbalestier, who will remain the chief scientist for materials at...

A team of scientists led by Western University in London, Ontario, Canada, has revealed how art curators can use light to recover images preserved on otherwise damaged daguerreotype silver plates.

Engineers from SIMIC S.p.a., a contractor based in Italy, have wrapped up the first round of cold testing the toroidal field coils manufactured for ITER, a process that involved submitting the coil winding pack to a thermal cycle between room temperature and 80 K.

A research team from Florida State University’s Center for Advanced Power Systems and the Colorado-based Advanced Conductor Technologies LLC has demonstrated the first high-temperature superconducting direct current power transmission cable using ACT’s Conductor on Round Core (CORC) cable technology. The cables enable transmission of vast amounts of power at high...

Plans for recovering LNG cold energy have become an important focus in the LNG industry and show great potential for increasing energy efficiency and reducing carbon emission.

Cryocoolers are making inroads into commercial applications and are getting closer to our everyday lives. It is well known in the cryogenics community that cryocoolers have been in increasing demand for wider applications.
