Scientists have discovered an anomaly in the properties of ice at very cold temperatures near 20 K, which they believe can be explained by the quantum tunneling of multiple protons simultaneously. The finding is a rare instance of quantum phenomena emerging on the macroscopic scale, and is even more unusual because it is only the second time—the first being superconductivity—that macroscopic quantum phenomena have been observed in a system that is based on fermions, which include protons, electrons, and all other matter particles. Other systems exhibiting macroscopic quantum phenomena have been based on photons, a type of boson, which mediate the forces between matter.
Scientists are optimistic that having a full image of the human genome would help them better understand human evolution and pave the path for discoveries in
More flexible and better for the environment.
It is said to needed 36 percent less power to make and release up to 76 percent less carbon dioxide compared to standard bendable concrete made of concrete.
