In an ultra-cold, high-magnetic-field setting, ZrTe5 defies expectations by showing quantum heat oscillations. Researchers ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications.

Using machine learning workflows developed in-house, researchers have established that heat conduction is much more intricate ...

There are better heat conductors but they aren't practical materials for producing computer heatsinks: silver exceeds copper's thermal conductivity at 429W/mK (hence Arctic Silver thermal paste ...

When fast-moving atoms or molecules hit slower-moving atoms or molecules and increase their speed, heat is transferred. This process is called conduction. The atoms in the hot spoon are moving faster ...

Complex materials such as organic semiconductors or the microporous metal-organic frameworks known as MOFs are already being ...

If you can’t answer the riddle, don’t feel bad. Metal conductors usually conduct electricity and heat. Usually, that’s true, but researchers at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley ...

New insights into heat transport in organic semiconductors reveal tunneling effects, enhancing the design of materials with ...

Scientists know well how conventional materials conduct heat. However, things are not as straightforward under extreme ...

"When a normal metal such as silver or copper is placed in strong magnetic fields at temperatures close to absolute zero, that is −273.15 °C, its heat conduction is expected to oscillate − a ...
