Supraledare är en hörnsten i bland annat kvantdatorer och partikeldetektorer. Ett vanligt problem är dock att effektiviteten försämras av olika störningar. Nu har forskare vid bland annat LTH genom högprecisionsmätningar kommit ett steg närmare en förklaring till vad det är som händer. Resultaten publiceras nu i Nature Physics. Supraledning är beroende av närvaron av elektroner bundna i så kallade
