Scientists may have spotted a long-sought triplet superconductor — a material that can transmit both electricity and electron spin with zero resistance. That ability could dramatically stabilize quantum computers while slashing their energy use. Early experiments suggest the alloy NbRe behaves unlike any conventional superconductor. If verified, it could become a cornerstone of next-generation quantum and spintronic technology.

        I was interested in that too. Looks like they have a link the paper at the bottom of the article published in the journal Physical Review Letters, and appears to be a reputable peer reviewed journal. Not and expert and didn’t dig too far past that, so could be wrong.
