For decades, scientists quested after a room-temperature superconductor. Now that they’ve finally found one, the hunt is on for an even better material. Until last year, all known superconductors — ...

Have you ever heard of metallic hydrogen? Probably not, because it has only ever existed in theory. Harvard scientists have recently created metallic hydrogen from applying extremely high pressure to ...

When you're under pressure to set direction, justify investment, or understand your competitive position, you need more than raw data — you need trusted insights you can act on. Benchmark your ...

A solid-state transformation in oxygen that physicists had long thought might occur has finally been observed. Oxygen is a highly magnetic molecular solid at low temperatures, but physicists had for ...
