Phase transitions in different states of matter, such as the condensation of gases into liquids or the transition from a normal metal to a superconducting state, can be described using Ginzburg-Landau ...

Using artificial intelligence shortens the time to identify complex quantum phases in materials from months to minutes, finds a new study published in Newton. The breakthrough could significantly ...

Why do some changes in nature unfold gradually, while others occur in the blink of an eye? Rust forming on metal is a slow, steady process that takes days or even weeks to become visible. By contrast, ...

Superconductivity and magnetism have long been treated as rivals in condensed matter physics, one thriving on perfect electrical order, the other on internal magnetic chaos. Now researchers at MIT ...

Scientists at the U. S. Department of Energy Ames National Laboratory and Iowa State University have discovered an unexpected "quantum echo" in a superconducting material. This discovery provides ...

This discovery provides insight into quantum behaviors that could be used for next-generation quantum sensing and computing technologies. (Nanowerk News) Superconductors are materials that carry ...
