A NIMS research team has developed a technique that enables the nanoscale observation of heat propagation paths and behavior within material specimens. This was achieved using a scanning transmission ...

Concrete’s thermal behaviour is governed primarily by its conductivity, diffusivity and heat capacity, all of which determine the rate at which heat is stored and transferred through walls, floors and ...

In many quantum materials—materials with unusual electrical and magnetic properties driven by quantum mechanical effects—electrons can organize themselves into Landau levels. Landau levels are ...
