Boron nitride sensors enable quantum measurements under crushing pressure, redefining high-pressure physics. The quantum world is already full of mysteries, but what happens when this strange domain ...

Research using the world's most energetic laser has shed light on the properties of highly compressed matter -- essential to understanding the structure of giant planets and stars, and to develop ...

The Laboratory for Integrated Science and Engineering, located at 11 Oxford Street, houses experimental physics labs. A team of Harvard and Boston University physicists developed a new tool to measure ...

With his bold claims of revolutionary room-temperature superconductors, physicist Ranga Dias of the University of Rochester in New York propelled the field of high-pressure physics into the spotlight.

Dr. Raimundas Sereika received his Ph.D. in condensed matter physics from Vilnius University in Lithuania in 2013 and has since worked as a Researcher and Lecturer. In 2016, he joined the Center for ...

Scientists have created a new ice form, ice XXI, at room temperature under immense pressure. This breakthrough, achieved using advanced X-ray facilities, reveals water's complex behavior under extreme ...
