I really love seeing that with each upgrade, large-scale facilities become more powerful:
For 40 years, cuprate #superconductors were treates as a uniform crystal, but thanks to @esrf.fr source upgrade, we now know there are two different atomic arrangements.
Time to revisit some models!
Ytterbium Diantimonide, the Plain Superconductor That Grew Its Own Magnetic Field and Broke Time Reversal Symmetry

#Superconductivity made super-er. Apparently #superconductors are plagued by quantum vortices, akin to tiny tornados causing disturbances. But channels carved only an atom high can control those vortices.
⚛️ Superconductors' true current limit
In niobium nitride hit with picosecond pulses, the electron pairs behind superconductivity broke apart at about 2.2 times the usual current limit. That could help magnet design.
