Its even more difficult to study what happens when theres an abrupt change, such as a spike in temperature level or pressure, that throws the superconductor out of equilibrium.Quantum theory has actually anticipated intriguing behaviors when a superconductor is driven out of equilibrium. That suggests in some cases its a weaker superconductor, and often its a more powerful superconductor. With this quantum superconductor simulation, they were able to observe all 3 dynamic stages for the very first time.They discovered that in the third stage the energy space can keep superconductivity going even when the system is out of balance. Utilizing quantum simulators like this might assist scientists engineer non-traditional or more robust superconductors, and much better understand the physics of superconductors in general.Its likewise a counterintuitive way for scientists who work in measurement science to see atomic interactions, like the ones that cause the energy space, as an advantage, not a curse.
