- 1Plain superconductor YbSb2 found generating its own magnetic field●YbSb2, a "plain" Type I superconductor, has shattered expectations. Scientists found it spontaneously generates its own
Scientists report that YbSb2, previously considered an ordinary Type I superconductor, spontaneously generates its own internal magnetic field, breaking time-reversal symmetry — a first for such a material. The unexpected finding challenges assumptions about conventional superconductors and is prompting researchers to re-examine other seemingly well-understood materials for hidden magnetic behavior.
