22 LS Cable, a South Korean company based in Anyang-si near Seoul, has ordered three million metres of superconducting wire from US firm American Superconductor in Devens, Massachusetts. Jason Fredette, managing director of corporate communications at the company, says that LS Cable will use the wire to make about 20 circuit kilometres of cable as part of a programme to modernize the South Korean electricity network starting in the capital, Seoul. The superconducting wire is made using the ceramic compound yttrium barium copper oxide (YBCO), part of a family of 'high-temperature' superconducting ceramics that were first discovered in 1986.

93 Black Holes Objects so massive that light is gravitationally bound to them.
94 Black Holes Objects so massive that light is gravitationally bound to them. In Einstein s theory, the region inside the black hole horizon is disconnected from the rest of the universe. Horizon radius R = 2GM c 2
95 Black Holes Objects so massive that light is gravitationally bound to them. Chandrasekhar showed that certain stars were unstable, and these can collapse to black holes
96 Black Holes + Quantum theory Around 1974, Bekenstein and Hawking showed that the application of the quantum theory across a black hole horizon led to many astonishing conclusions

107 Superconducting Black Holes Add electrical charge to a black hole in a curved spacetime: initially the charges fall past the horizon into the black hole
108 Superconducting Black Holes However, eventually there is a balance between the gravitational forces pulling the charges into the black hole, and the repulsive electrical forces which push them out, and the resulting state is a superconductor!
109 More generally, string theory shows that there is a correspondence between the states of a black hole, and the quantum phases of matter (AdS/CFT correspondence)
110 More generally, string theory shows that there is a correspondence between the states of a black hole, and the quantum phases of matter (AdS/CFT correspondence) This has helped enrich our understanding of the physics of black holes, and also of the possible quantum phases of electrons in crystals
