Supercooled water may be a two-for-one deal. A long-standing theory holds that liquid water at temperatures well below freezing is composed of two different arrangements of molecules, one with high ...

Topological quantum systems are physical systems exhibiting properties that depend on the overall connectivity of their underlying lattice, as opposed to local interactions and their microscopic ...

Princeton University electrical engineers are using lasers to shed light on the behavior of superfluids -- strange, frictionless liquids that are difficult to create and study. Their technique allows ...

This film demonstrates various scientific experiments using liquid air and other materials to showcase their properties and applications. It illustrates how liquid air can contract metals for assembly ...

Two new innovative methods describe how to measure the electrical resistivity of liquid iron -- such as that found in planetary cores -- at extremely high pressures and temperatures. Prior to this, ...

The study of thermodynamic properties and critical phenomena in liquids remains a cornerstone of contemporary physical chemistry and materials science. Research in this field encompasses detailed ...

Understanding solids and gases is based on theories of their most basic properties, such as energy and heat capacity. These theories were developed more than 100 years ago. On the other hand, no ...
