For nearly two centuries, scientists believed that ice becomes slippery because pressure or friction melts its surface. New ...

Their motivation to develop the tool came from a struggle in experimental physics to observe properties of a sample subjected to extremely high pressure.

“The new phenomena we are reporting is a fundamental example of responses under high pressure—and will find a place in physics textbooks,” Salamat says.
