Charge density waves (CDWs) are ordered, crystal-like patterns in the arrangement of electrons that spontaneously form inside ...

Physicists have watched a quantum fluid do something once thought almost impossible: stop moving. In experiments with ...

When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions ...

Scientists studying molten metals have uncovered a surprising truth: even in a liquid state, some atoms do not move at all. Credit: SciTechDaily.com Motionless atoms can trap liquid metal in a strange ...

Physicists have observed a strange new quantum phase in a graphene-based system, where a superfluid appears to freeze into a solid-like state. Cooling usually pushes matter through a simple sequence.

The 20th century was marked by the discovery of exotic states of matter. First, liquid helium was observed to flow without friction at extremely low temperatures, a phase now known as superfluid. Soon ...

DAYTON, OHIO (WDTN) – You have heard over the last week that salt is not effective at melting snow below 15 degrees, but ...

Inside the high-tech chamber Seattle players are using to calm inflammation, reset stress, and prime their bodies for game ...

A battery electrolyte that is solid at normal temperatures yet still conducts ions could make lithium batteries safer and longer lasting by replacing flammable liquids.

For this video, I decided to make Brooker’s Merocyanine, also called MOED, which exhibits solvatochromism. This means that it ...

After that, I came back to the D.C.-area to work in Earth Science. It was a big change. I was no longer the manager of a ...

Researchers unveil an optofluidic laser method that assembles micro- and nanoparticles in liquid, enabling multi material 3D ...
