What happens to the humidity in a closed room, if you allow a bucket of water to evaporate?

And what happens to the bucket under a dehumidifier if you never empty it?

Eureka!

Scientists Find Clue to High-Temperature Superconductivity in Quantum Materials
Gadgets360 | January 20, 2026

Scientists have recently discovered the underlying hidden magnetic order in the pseudogap phase of a quantum material. The peculiar phase exists immediately above the superconducting transition. The research team employed an ultracold-atom simulator. They were able to detect a hidden antiferromagnetic order even when the material lacked electrons.

This is referred to as doping.

Oh. Which I thought was quite different.

These discoveries are reminiscent of strange occurrences found in ‘spin ice’ magnets. The basic structural units of spin ice crystals are frustrated tetrahedrons of magnetic atoms that do not form a traditional order.

My plan for a government grant: spin some ice made of ultracold atoms into a pseudogap. That should frustrate the hell out of tetrahedrons who were expecting a real gap.
