UTe2 shows two superconducting phases under extreme pressure
Original: UTe₂ reveals two flavors of superconductivity under extreme pressure
New research indicates that uranium ditelluride (UTe₂), a material long studied for its unusual superconducting behaviour, hosts two distinct forms of superconductivity when subjected to extreme pressure. Physicists say the finding could deepen understanding of unconventional superconductors and their potential use in quantum technologies. The work is drawing attention across the physics community this week.
Why now: A new study on UTe₂'s dual superconducting states has just been published, attracting interest from physicists and science readers
