| Abstract: | The article presents an interview with Bob Nagler and Thomas White details how scientists used the world's most powerful x-ray laser to superheat gold, discovering it can remain solid far beyond its expected melting point. Topics include a new temperature measurement method, the limits of superheated solids; and implications for high-energy-density physics. |
