Atom Cooling Leads to Greater Understanding of Superconductors
The processes that occur when atoms cool have long eluded scientists. However, a team of researchers at The Open University believe they have developed...
New Iron-based Superconductors Have Green Gains
Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has discovered a new type of iron-based superconductor that shares the same magnetic properties with the older copper-oxide superconductors. The amazing fact is that the new superconductors have all those magnetic properties at higher temperatures.
What Is a SuperConductor?
Superconductors are the next viable step in energy savings worldwide. They are being used to carry energy in Sweden, USA, Japan, and the list extends pretty fast to other countries.
Scientists Produce Solid Hydrogen Superconductor
A study published in journal Science yesterday claims that for the first time in the history of mankind, solid hydrogen exists on earth.
This solid...
SuperStation: The Superconductor Energy Hub Uniting U.S. Grids
New Mexico may become a hub for this kind of energetic interaction, as Clovis is wanted to host the SuperStation, a hub using superconducting cables to link three networks: The Eastern Interconnection, The Western Interconnection and the Texas Interconnection. The 5GW carrying cables will be cooled down to -300°F and thus energy losses through heat will be infinitesimally close to zero.
