· as part of an international team, university of warwick researchers have helped redefine long-held theories in a landmark experiment where superheated gold remained solid … · wafer-thin sheets of gold shot briefly with lasers can be heated up to 14 times their melting point while remaining solid, far beyond the theoretical limit, raising the possibility that … · scientists say that they have heated solid gold for a fleeting moment to a temperature 14 times its melting point before it melts — narrowly skirting the laws of … · gold was superheated to 19,000 kelvin—14 times its normal melting point—and remained solid, overturning the “entropy catastrophe” limit and rewriting physics textbooks. The researchers reported that the gold was superheated to a temperature of about 10 times its melting point when heated at the lower … · using an intense burst from a laser, a team heated a gold foil to 14 times its melting point, far beyond a theoretical limit put forward in previous studies. · scientists have used an ultrafast laser to heat solid gold to 14 times its melting point without turning the metal into liquid. Even at a lower heating rate, the material hit 13,800 k, still. · gold stayed solid for 2 picoseconds at 19,000k in a groundbreaking superheating experiment, challenging conventional physics and theories of melting points. · white and his colleagues had just observed solid gold reaching an astonishing 19,000 kelvins (33,740 degrees fahrenheit or 18,726 degrees celsius) — more than 14 times … Ne gold exceeded the theoretical superheating limit. Scientists have used an ultrafast laser to heat solid gold to 14 times its melting point without turning the metal into liquid. · their gold sample had reached an eye-watering 19,000 kelvins —more than 14 times its normal melting point, and far beyond what current theory said was possible for a solid. · the researchers reported that the gold was superheated to a temperature of about 10 times its melting point when heated at the lower rate, and to about 14 times its melting point … At the higher heating rate of 6 × 10¹⁵ kelvin per second, the gold reached 19,000 k (about 14 times its melting point).
