Most metals expand when their temperature rises. The Eiffel Tower, for example, is about 10 to 15 centimeters taller in ...

However, this expansion can be a real problem for many technologies like precision instruments or spacecraft. That’s why ...

Breakthrough in materials research: an alloy of several metals has been developed that shows practically no thermal expansion ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking material that barely changes size with temperature, defying the usual expansion of ...

If thermal expansion occurs on a hot day the tracks ... It expands more than the solid glass and so the water level rises back to A and then up to, and beyond, C. This is the principle behind ...

Most metals expand when their temperature rises. This effect is extremely undesirable for many technical applications. Now, scientists have created a new material that hardly changes in length over an ...

A research collaboration has created a pyrochlore magnet alloy with near-zero thermal expansion, outperforming Invar. This ...
