{FEATUREDTYPE}: {FEATUREDCAPTION} view more  Credit: {FEATUREDCREDIT}{FEATUREDCREDITMORE} A discovery that long eluded physicists has been detected in a laboratory at Princeton. A team of physicists detected superconducting currents — the flow of electrons without wasting energy — along the exterior edge of a superconducting material. The finding was published in the May 1 issue of the journal

IMAGE: Researchers suggested using machine learning methods to predict the properties of artificial sapphire crystals. It is a unique material widely used in microelectronics, optics and electronics. view more  Credit: Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University Researchers from Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU) in collaboration with colleagues from Southern Federal University and Indian Institute
