Scientists have studied the behavior of gold and platinum at pressures near 1 terapascal (TPa)—a trillion pascals—several times the pressure at Earth’s center (Science 2021, DOI: ...

Gold has a reputation for being one of the most stable, predictable elements in the periodic table, but under crushing pressures and searing temperatures it turns out to be anything but simple. By ...

Lithium might be a "simple metal" under normal conditions but under extreme pressures it becomes a superconductor with one of the highest critical temperatures of all the elements At ambient ...

GRAND RAPIDS — High pressure and low pressure are terms we hear all the time in our weather forecasts, but do we know how pressure is measured? Meteorologists use a lot of different instruments to ...
