Heating that lasted only trillionths of a second raised a gold sample’s temperature to 19,000 K without melting it, a study ...

Gold remains solid at extreme temperatures, challenging thermodynamic laws and offering new insights for material design.

Using the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in California, the team blasted the ...

This is the so-called entropy catastrophe. This critical temperature, where a superheated solid and a liquid have the same entropy, is around three times the melting temperature. Gold has a melting ...

One of the shared, fundamental goals of most chemistry researchers is the need to predict a molecule's properties, such as ...

Flip chip lidded ball grid array (FCLBGA) packaging technology, which is commonly used in high-performance computing ...

In their research article, “ Superheating gold beyond the predicted entropy catastrophe threshold ,” physicists revealed they were able to heat gold to over 19,000 Kelvin (33,740 degrees Fahrenheit), ...

Although quartz glass and microcrystalline glass belong to the same category of glass materials, there are significant ...

Ocean tides can trigger city-sized icebergs to break off from Antarctic ice shelves, scientists said on Thursday, offering a ...

TODAY’S WORD — MELAMINE (A resin with a high melting point.) Average mark 25 words, time limit 40 minutes Can you find 36 or more words in MELAMINE? The list will be published tomorrow.… ...

The numbers shocked the team. Gold, typically expected to melt around 1,337 kelvins, reached a staggering 19,000 kelvins ...

Metallic glass is metal that is cooled so quickly that it doesn’t form crystals, like metals typically do. Instead, metallic ...
