New technical paper titled “Magnifying Quantum Phase Fluctuations with Cooper-Pair Pairing” from researchers at Université PSL, CNRS, Sorbonne Université, Université Paris-Diderot, Inria de Paris, PSL ...

Dr Leon N Cooper: discovered that electrons in a superconductor are grouped in pairs, now called Cooper pairs, - Bettmann Leon Cooper, who has died aged 94, shared the 1972 Nobel Prize in Physics with ...

Electricity flows through our cables, but some energy is lost as heat. These losses could be avoided thanks to superconductors: materials capable of carrying current without any resistance.

Room-temperature superconductors would revolutionize nearly every technology on Earth, but the path toward that “holy grail” of materials is a long one. Scientists from Caltech might’ve just taken one ...

Superconductors are materials with no electrical resistance whatsoever, commonly requiring extremely low temperatures. They are used in a wide range of domains, from medical applications to a central ...
