Viable superconducting material created in University of Rochester lab

Researchers at the University of Rochester have created a nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride that exhibits superconductivity at 69 degrees Fahrenheit and 10 kilobars of pressure. This breakthrough material has the potential to enable practical applications, as it reduces the required pressure for superconductivity to occur.

Clinical score can guide PRRT therapy decisions for neuroendocrine tumors

A clinical score system developed by Vanderbilt researchers can guide PRRT treatment decisions, indicating that patients with a score of 4 or less may experience improved progression-free and overall survival. The study suggests that a minimum of three doses are needed to achieve meaningful DNA damage in neuroendocrine tumors.

Kestrel 3000 Pocket Weather Meter

Kestrel 3000 Pocket Weather Meter measures wind, temperature, and humidity in real time for site assessments, aviation checks, and safety briefings.

Neglected atom has top properties for atomic clocks

Researchers propose lutetium as a superior element for atomic clocks, offering lower sensitivity to temperature. This could lead to more accurate and stable timekeeping, with potential applications in fundamental physics and global positioning systems.

'Atomic sandwiches' could make computers 100X greener

Researchers have engineered a magnetoelectric multiferroic material that combines electrical and magnetic properties at room temperature. This new material could enable devices with lower energy consumption, addressing the growing concern of electronics being the fastest-growing consumer of energy worldwide.
