Explore the cutting-edge world of high-pressure physics in this Presidential Lecture that examines emergent quantum phenomena arising from collective many-body interactions of electrons and nuclei under extreme pressure conditions. Delve into groundbreaking research on new states of electron order and enhanced electron-nuclei coupling that leads to unprecedented superconductivity approaching room temperature. Discover how what began as investigations into the 'simple' many-body system of protons and electrons has evolved into experimentally verified superconductivity at increasingly higher temperatures across diverse chemical environments under pressure. Learn about the crucial experimental technique advances that have made these discoveries possible and understand the promising implications for 'hot' superconductivity at ambient conditions. Gain insights into the potential applications for quantum energy technologies of the future and the ongoing discovery of novel physical phenomena under pressure conditions.
