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), ...

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

Researchers taking the first-ever direct measurement of atom temperature in extremely hot materials inadvertently disproved a ...

Physicists superheated gold to 14 times its melting point, disproving a long-standing prediction about the temperature limits ...

With fast heating, sheets of gold can shoot past the theoretical maximum temperature a solid can have before it melts – ...

Gold usually melts at 1,300 kelvins—a temperature hotter than fresh lava from a volcano. The feat was completely unexpected ...

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 ...

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

A 50 nm thick sheet of solid gold was heated well beyond a theoretical limit, suggests new study — plus, what researchers think about the threat of nuclear war. This YouTube video cannot be played due ...

Forty-six years after it was first recorded, the magnetic data collected by Voyager 1 as it sailed past Jupiter, crossing its ...

MSWI fly ash and municipal sludge are solid wastes. Melting vitrification treatment was a resource utilization method. However, the flow temperature of grate furnace MSWI fly ash and municipal sludge ...

A new commentary published in Nature Communications by Dr James Bradley, Reader in Environmental Science at Queen Mary University of London, and his team reveals a dramatic and concerning shift in the ...
