Superconductors are materials with no electrical resistance whatsoever, commonly requiring extremely low temperatures. They are used in a wide range of domains, from medical applications to a central role in quantum computers. Superconductivity is caused by specially linked pairs of electrons known as Cooper pairs.
Your chance of breaking a bone sometime within the next year is nearly 4%. If you're unlucky enough to need a bone replacement, it'll probably be based on a metal part. Unfortunately, metal parts are sometimes toxic over time, and will not help your original bone regrow.
At the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), scientists and their collaborators have found out how next-generation solid-state batteries fail and engineered a novel strategy to make these batteries charge faster and live longer.
