A wafer-thin layer of rust, formed naturally in air, helped researchers spot a behavior many physicists have chased for decades. That oxide, hematite (α-Fe2O3), appeared on the top layer of a stacked ...

There are magnetic levitation trains, the Maglev, which travel at more than 505 km/h thanks to a technology that levitates ...

Physicists in China have unveiled new clues to the origins of high-temperature superconductivity in an iron-based material just a single unit-cell thick. Led by Qi-Kun Xue and Lili Wang at Tsinghua ...

Despite the headline, this isn’t really a story about superconductivity—at least not the superconductivity that people care ...

NbRe may be a long-sought triplet superconductor, offering zero-resistance spin transport and major advances in quantum computing.

Astronomers have unveiled one of the most ambitious maps yet of the early universe, revealing a vast "sea of light" between galaxies that had remained otherwise hidden in previous surveys.
