Wincosyn Solution Co., Ltd., of China has selected Cool Pair Plus (CSA CSM) to support its multiple MRI systems, specifically magnet sub-systems, throughout China. Wincosyn Solution is an integrated delivery network of nine independent service companies that provide hospitals turnkey solutions for CT, MRI, and Cath Labs, ECT and linear...

A research collaboration based at Stony Brook University has found that “stripes” of electronic charge, which may play a key role in superconductivity, persist across surprisingly high temperatures, shape conductivity and have direction-dependent properties. The findings—published in Physical Review Letters—came as the group studied metals that conduct electricity poorly, looking...

NIST scientists have devised a novel hybrid system for cooling superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPD). It uses a pulse-tube refrigerator cooled to 10 K to precool a Joule-Thomson cryocooler that can then reach 2 K. That level of cooling has typically been achieved with liquid helium systems that are costly,...

Accelerators at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (CSA CSM) have delivered beam to the Muon g-2 experiment for the first time, kicking off a three-year effort to measure what happens to those particles when placed in a precise magnetic field. The answer could rewrite scientists’ picture of the universe and...

The Brookhaven National Laboratory has announced a $15 million allocation from New York State to fund a cryo-electron microscope at the Long Island Facility for Electron Microscopy, a new facility on its campus. The microscope will operate at 77 K and will provide researchers with a new look at molecular...

MIT physicists have found that a flake of graphene, when sandwiched between two superconducting materials, can inherit some of those materials’ superconducting qualities. The electronic state of the graphene changes dramatically here, even at its center, as the particles pair up in Andreev states—a fundamental electronic configuration that allows a...
