A team of researchers led by a physics graduate student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst made the surprising ...

With properties of a superfluid but with a crystalline structure, supersolids have previously only been observed in ultracold ...

During a routine set of experiments being conducted in the lab, Anthony Raykh, a graduate student at the University of ...

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

Is Ranch Dressing a Liquid or a Solid? Imagine you’re sitting down for dinner. You pick up a bottle of ranch dressing, flip it upside down, and expect it to pour onto your plate. But nothing happens.

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

Everything that has mass is matter. In normal everyday life we come across matter in three states, solid, liquid and gas. They have a fixed shape and cannot flow The particles cannot move from ...

Spin liquids are a fascinating and elusive state of matter that has captivated the attention of physicists and material scientists. The term "liquid" in spin liquids draws an analogy to the fluid ...

The focus is that matter, whether solid, liquid, or gas, is made up of particles; that dissolving and evaporation happen at the particle level; and that models can help explain these processes that we ...

The behaviour of liquids at an interface is an important physical problem ... in computational and theoretical solutions to a wide range of problems in soft matter and statistical physics. This ...
