Abstract
Applied magnetic fields underlie exotic quantum states, such as the fractional quantum Hall effect1 and Bose-Einstein condensation of spin excitations2. Superconductivity, on the other hand, is inherently antagonistic towards magnetic fields. Only in rare cases3-5 can these effects be mitigated over limited fields, leading to reentrant superconductivity phases in the spin-triplet superconductor UTe26. Strikingly, we observe superconductivity in the highest magnetic field range identified for any reentrant superconductor, beyond 65 T. These extreme properties reflect a new kind of exotic superconductivity rooted in magnetic fluctuations7 and boosted by a quantum dimensional crossover8.Citation
