A discovery at NIST changed how researchers think about an unusual quantum material. One physicist is being honored for that work

That's what happened when researchers studying a quantum material known as uranium ditelluride uncovered surprising behavior that is reshaping scientific understanding of superconductivity. Joining me now is Dr. Nicholas Butch of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, a recipient of the 2026 Arthur S. Flemming Award.
