Superconductivity is a quantum mechanical phenomenon where certain materials exhibit zero electrical resistance and expel magnetic fields when cooled below a critical temperature. Discovered in 1911, it has fascinated scientists for over a century, leading to breakthroughs in technologies like MRI machines, particle accelerators, and powerful electromagnets. Research today pushes the boundaries of superconductivity, from understanding high-temperature superconductors to exploring potential applications in energy transmission, quantum computing, and advanced transportation systems like maglev trains.
