Researchers find magnetic link to high-temperature superconductivity

Researchers from the Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Science, a joint SLAC-Stanford institute, have seen strong indications of a relationship between the superconductive and magnetic properties of high-temperature superconductors — a relationship long suspected but difficult to investigate experimentally. Any step toward a real understanding of high temperature superconductors is a big step right now. Today’s superconductors need extreme cold to keep conducting electricity with 100 percent efficiency, but extreme cold is not cheap
