Ice may seem pretty simple in our everyday experience, but it actually comes in at least 20 different forms. Scientists at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) have now discovered a new type of ...
Superconductors are materials that conduct electricity with an electrical resistance of zero. Superconductivity is generally ...
Chinese researchers have been building a body of work on how solid rocket motors behave when ignited deep underwater, where ...
University of California, Berkeley, and Yale University scientists have recreated the tremendous pressures and high temperatures deep in the Earth to resolve a long-standing puzzle: why some seismic ...
Researchers have confirmed that the spinel compound CuIr2S4, long studied for its unusual metal-insulator transition, becomes ...
High-pressure resistivity experiments are under way to investigate whether gadolinium's bound f electrons become delocalized at this pressure. The researchers are also examining the electrical ...
In this month's Weather Experiment Wednesday, we are looking at how pressure can change the boiling point of water. We took two identical beakers with the same temperature water inside. One beaker we ...
TULSA, Okla. — Here’s a way to beat the heat and showcase a feature of the atmosphere. All you need is a large jug full of water. Director of Education Chip Lindsey with Discovery Lab explains that ...
