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 ...

This means that cats should be classified as liquids, right? The question is not so easy to answer. “If we wait long enough, ...

Spin liquids are a fascinating and elusive state of matter that has captivated the attention of physicists and material scientists. The term "liquid" in spin liquids draws an analogy to the fluid ...

[MUSIC] JOAN CARTAN-HANSEN, HOST: You know about the three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas. But what do you know about the fourth state of matter- plasma? Plasma is sort of a gas ...

Quantum spin liquids are fascinating states of matter where magnetic spins stay disordered, defying the usual rules of magnetism. Scientists have made an exciting discovery about one such material.

The unique structure of PAMs has the potential to transform industries, from healthcare to robotics, by offering properties never before seen in materials science. PAMs represent a bold step forward ...

Daraio herself described them as really a "new class of matter" and said that they can take the form of squishy or metal ...

Already identified as a superionic material, it walks the line between a crystalline and liquid state of matter. While it is a solid at room temperatures, it still allows lithium ions to travel as ...

By linking theoretical predictions with neutron experiments, researchers have found evidence for quantum spin ice in the material Ce2Sn2O7. Their findings, which may inspire the technology of tomorrow ...

so why do we need something made of shape-shifting liquid metal? The benefit of having a piece of technology that can transition between the two states of matter is that it doesn’t suffer from ...

Caltech researchers have developed PAMs, a novel material that blends the properties of solids and liquids, making them ...
