This corralled supercooled liquid relies on the surprising property that some atoms in a liquid remain stationary regardless ...

Researchers have discovered that not all atoms in a liquid are in motion and that some remain stationary regardless of the temperature, significantly impacting the solidification process, including ...

A team of researchers from Switzerland and France and theoretical physicists in Canada and the U.S., including Rice University, believe they have found evidence of a theorized quantum phenomenon ...

Physicists are now watching matter behave in a way that defies everyday intuition, with atoms and even light itself arranging ...

Solid, liquid and gaseous – these are the familiar main forms of matter. Scientists at Ulm University and the University of Nottingham have now proven the existence of a completely new state of matter ...

High school science misses a lot of the science researchers actually work with. For example, you learn that there are three states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas—but in advanced physics, things get ...

Scientists have discovered a new state of matter that isn't a solid, liquid, or gas. Researchers call this new type of material a 'corralled supercooled liquid'. Atoms in a liquid are normally like ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Far beneath the Black Hills of South Dakota, a tank of liquid xenon is quietly recording some of the faintest signals in the ...
