“Magic-angle” graphene could help solve the puzzle of how unconventional superconductors work By Emily Conover Stacks of graphene, carefully twisted, gain a superpower: They become superconductors. Now scientists have new evidence that this “magic-angle” graphene is a member of a truly strange class of superconductor. Like all superconductors, the materials, known...

Kyocera Corporation (President and CEO: Hideo Tanimoto, hereinafter referred to as “Kyocera”) is pleased to announce that, through joint research with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (hereinafter referred to as “JAXA”), it has developed two new products: a 100A current feedthrough terminal that ensures durability and airtightness in liquid hydrogen...

Cryogenic surfaces do not hinder droplet splashing, but smaller droplets make smaller splashes. Hannah Richter On a rainy day, a classic physical property is on display: droplet splashing. How liquids splash is not just important for keeping one’s clothes dry, but for applications from inkjet printing to spraying crops to...

CERN researchers are contributing to a growing number of projects aimed at developing technological solutions to environmental challenges—from fusion power and marine pollution detection to renewable energy distribution and cleaner aviation. These initiatives, carried out with academic and industrial partners, are coordinated through the CERN Innovation Programme for Environmental Applications...

By Victoria Corless Scientists studying “magic-angle” graphene have captured the clearest evidence yet of the electronic signature behind its superconductivity, cutting through years of speculation about what drives its exotic behavior. “When superconductivity was first discovered in magic-angle graphene, it was surprising,” says Jeong Min Park of Princeton University. “Graphene...

ByNeetika Walter Scientists in Toronto have unveiled a chilling breakthrough: a laser-regulated atomic clock cooled to just five degrees above absolute zero, promising a leap in timekeeping accuracy unlike anything used today. Physicists at the University of Toronto have developed the world’s first cryogenic single-ion optical atomic clock, a next-generation...
