Ranch dressing is actually a fifth state of matter known as soft matter. Soft matter can have properties of both liquids and solids, so materials scientists say it is viscoelastic – a combination of ...

Scientists from UC San Diego have uncovered a key finding to one of water's unique properties: at high pressure and low ...

Scientists have found that water, under extreme pressure and cold temperatures, can split into two different liquid phases.

"In a quantum theater, where bosonic particles (particles with integer spin) go, everyone can sit in the central seat, forming what is called a Bose–Einstein condensate—a superfluid state in which a ...

Water can exist in two liquid states under extreme conditions, reshaping our understanding of its molecular behavior.

Microsoft has developed the world’s first quantum computing chip called Majorana 1. The company says quantum computers are ...

The transport of dense gases and liquids is becoming increasingly relevant in relation to carbon capture. Research published ...

Microsoft’s new “topological qubit” is not based on a solid, liquid or gas. It is another phase of matter that many experts did not think was possible.

Microsoft has unveiled its new Majorana 1 chip, powered by topological qubits. CEO Satya Nadella called it a "breakthrough" in quantum computing.

You probably learned in school that there are three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas. Think ice cube, a puddle of water and steam. Maybe you also learned about a fourth state, known as plasma.
