The University of Nottingham has kicked off a £5.3 million program of research to support the development, manufacture and testing of a revolutionary cryogenic hydrogen-electric propulsion system. The news was announced at the Farnborough International Airshow 2024 and is part of a pioneering £44 million project led by GKN Aerospace,...

A Yale-led team has found the strongest evidence yet of a novel type of superconducting material, a fundamental science breakthrough that may open the door to coaxing superconductivity — the flow of electric current without a loss of energy — in a new way. The discovery also lends tangible support...

Leon Cooper, who has died aged 94, helped to solve a problem that had stumped many of the greatest minds in twentieth-century physics. With his colleagues John Bardeen and Robert Schrieffer, he deciphered the dance of electrons that causes superconductivity, or the sudden drop in electrical resistance experienced by certain materials,...

A research team led by Professor Jaedong Lee from the Department of Chemical Physics at DGIST (President Kunwoo Lee) has unveiled a groundbreaking quantum state and an innovative mechanism for extracting and manipulating quantum information through exciton and Floquet states. Collaborating with Professor Noejung Park from UNIST’s Department of Physics (President Chongrae...

Standex International Corporation (SXI) has acquired Michigan-based advanced cryogenic equipment manufacturer Custom Biogenic Systems (CBS) for around $6.2m cash. Under terms of the deal, CBS will become part of SXI’s scientific business segment. CBS expertise includes the manufacturing of unique isothermal freezers with dry liquid nitrogen technology for the pharmaceutical and...
