New Superconducting Material Could, Lead to Revolutionary Advancements.
'The Independent' reports that scientists
have revealed a newly-discovered
material that could change the world. .
The superconducting material works at both
a temperature and pressure that makes
it applicable in practical situations.
Most notably, the new material is able
to transmit electricity with no resistance.
It could save up to
200 million megawatt hours
currently lost via resistance.
The discovery could also lead to breakthroughs
in fusion technology, a process which
could unlock unlimited energy.
The team claims the new material could
be applied to developing new types of
high-speed transit and medical equipment.
The discovery is detailed in a paper
titled, 'Evidence of near-ambient
superconductivity in a N-doped lutetium hydride.'.
It was published in
the journal 'Nature.'.
'The Independent' reports that the new
material's nickname, "reddmatter," is
a nod to a material in 'Star Trek.'.
A pathway to superconducting consumer
electronics, energy transfer lines,
transportation, and significant
improvements of magnetic confinement
for fusion are now a reality, Ranga Dias, scientist and lead author, via 'The Independent'.
