Introduction
In 2017, computations by Axel van de Walle show Nitrogen Hafnium Carbide HfN0.38C0.51 would have a melting point of more than 4400 K (7460°F), which is approximately 2/3 the temperature of the sun and 200 K higher than the highest recorded experimental melting point of a material. The work was performed on National Science Foundation's XSEDE computer network and Brown University "Oscar" high-performance computer cluster.
