Solid-state batteries are poised to transform everything from electric cars to consumer electronics, and represent a ...

Is it wizardry? Physicists at the University of Konstanz have succeeded in changing the properties of a material in a non-thermal way with the help of light and magnons. The new process is not only ...

Every day, your body replaces billions of cells—and yet, your tissues stay perfectly organized. How is that possible?

Explore the fundamental concept of matter in physics, everything that makes up the physical world around us. Matter is not ...

In the natural world, many things come in mirror-image pairs. Your left and right hands are a perfect example—they look alike but can’t be perfectly superimposed. This idea, called chirality or ...

Satya Nadella hailed the launch of Microsoft's new quantum chip, Majorana 1, as a breakthrough. He said the company has created an entirely new state of matter.

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.

But none sound as impressive as developing a new state of matter. There are three fundamental states of matter — solid, liquid, and gas — and two exotic forms that we know as plasma and the ...

And the glowing colors of neon signs are created by plasma and so is the light inside a fluorescent bulb. For more information about states of matter, check out the Science Trek website.

Physicists have, for the first time, successfully stirred a "supersolid" -- a bizarre state of matter that's both rigid and fluid. By doing so, they were able to directly observe the superfluid ...
