(Nanowerk News) Metallic glass is an important advanced alloy, holding promise for broad engineering applications. It appears as a solid form in many aspects, with beautiful metal appearance, ...

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 ...

Theoretical modelling explores the movement of atoms within a liquid nanodroplet of platinum that is confined inside a defect in a carbon support. The colours represent the mobility of the atoms: ...

In everyday life, all matter exists as either a gas, liquid, or solid. In quantum mechanics, however, it is possible for two distinct states to exist simultaneously. An ultracold quantum system, for ...
