WHY SUPERCONDUCTOR RESEARCH IS IN A ‘GOLDEN AGE’ — DESPITE CONTROVERSY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Superconductivity research is enjoying somewhat of a renaissance fueled in part by the new capabilities of computer simulations to predict the existence and properties of undiscovered materials. Scientists have unearthed several families of materials over the past few years that could have revolutionary properties. This article covers some of the history behind superconductivity research and the current state of the field.
