HOUSTON, Texas, Feb. 27 (TNSJou) -- Rice University issued the following news release:
In a twist befitting the strange nature of quantum mechanics, physicists have discovered the Hall effect -- a characteristic change in the way electricity is conducted in the presence of a magnetic field -- in a nonmagnetic quantum material to which no magnetic field was applied.
