Scientists have transformed light into a supersolid, a breakthrough merging solid and liquid properties in quantum physics.

We may be starting to get a grasp on what kick-started life on Earth – and it could help us search for it on other planets ...

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

At first, the photons settle into a state with zero momentum, but as this state 'fills up', pairs of photons begin to spill ...

For the first time, researchers transformed light into a quantum crystalline structure to create a "supersolid" that's both ...

Scientists in China have simulated a system that combines liquid-based direct air capture with diabatic compressed air energy ...

Water exists in various states beyond the commonly known solid, liquid, and gas. Scientists have long theorised about the ...

A plasma instability has been photographed for the first time, showcasing electron beams forming spaghetti-like filaments.

Scientists have uncovered a key finding to one of water's unique properties: at high pressure and low temperature, liquid water separates into two distinct liquid phases -- one high-density and one ...

Ranch dressing is actually a fifth state of matter known as soft matter. Soft matter can have properties of both liquids and ...

"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 ...

The discovery that helium and iron can mix at the temperatures and pressures found at the center of Earth could settle a long ...
