MEET STRANGE METALS: WHERE ELECTRICITY MAY FLOW WITHOUT ELECTRONS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Some strange metals carry currents through them without electrons. A new quantum phenomenon is likely responsible for electricity flow within metals. Currents move more like liquids than a collective movement of electrons when moving through these metals. Research is starting to show that there is a different phase of matter within these materials.
