Scientists on Wednesday said that they have successfully stirred a strange matter called a "supersolid" -- which is both rigid and fluid -- for the first time, providing direct proof of the dual ...

First-Ever Observation of Mini-Tornadoes in Supersolid Quantum Gas In a breakthrough, scientists confirmed superfluid properties in supersolids by observing quantized vortices. Using precision ...

The main reason solid-state batteries have not yet been installed in a mass-production automobile is that they still haven't ...

Supersolids are a new form of quantum matter that has only recently been demonstrated. The state of matter can be produced artificially in ultracold, dipolar quantum gases. A team has now demonstrated ...

Researchers have taken direct images of the Wigner molecular crystal, a new quantum phase of an electron solid. The ...

Condensed-matter physics is the study of substances in their solid state. This includes the investigation of both crystalline solids in which the atoms are positioned on a repeating three ...

The focus is that matter, whether solid, liquid ... the water molecules change from the liquid state to a solid when water freezes. Tell students that one of the unique things about water is that ...

More broadly, Matter 1.4 bakes a lot of timing, energy cost, and other automation triggers into the spec, which—again, when ...

Scientists are planning to look within billion-year-old rock formations in the search for mysterious dark matter.

Wade into federal law. Hurd describes himself as being “pro-life” but says he would not support a national ban on abortion because he believes that individual states should decide access to ...

Supersolid states of matter have been predicted for decades, but were only recently synthesized in the lab. In this state, produced by manipulating quantum gases, matter acts as a solid but also ...

Physicists have, for the first time, successfully stirred a "supersolid" -- a bizarre state of matter that's both rigid and fluid. By doing so, they were able to directly observe the superfluid flow ...
