New experiment deciphers an important intermediate step towards a new phase of matter. (Nanowerk News) Usually, hydrogen is a colourless gas. Under ultra-high pressure, however, this simplest of all ...

The inset shows the behavior of deuterium, not observed to form hydrogen V One potential use for metallic hydrogen might be as a room-temperature superconductor. Such superconductors have proven ...

The discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in hydrogen-rich compounds such as H 3 S and LaH 10 has rekindled researchers' fervent quest for room-temperature superconductors. The pulsed ...

Superconductors promise loss-free electricity, but most only work at extreme cold. Hydrogen-rich materials changed that—yet their inner workings remained hidden because they only exist under enormous ...
