...that lose all resistance to electrical currents when chilled close to absolute zero. In 1962 Josephson, then a 22-year-old graduate student at Cambridge, applied the mathematics of modern quantum physics to predict two significant effects that now bear his name: 1) that electrons can tunnel back and forth through an insulator separating adjacent superconductors even when there is no voltage present-an idea totally at odds with the behavior of electricity at ordinary temperature; and 2) that if a voltage is applied across layers of superconductors and insulators, it will produce an ultrahigh-frequency alternating current. Devices based...
...Venice. In most other respects, the production is a visual extravaganza that at long last brings the Met fully into the 20th century.
