A new water distribution system report ordered by the city of Fort Smith recommends leaders take caution right now in approving new development in light of the system's current treatment and ...

Molecular dynamics model uses topological order parameter to show stratification of water molecules based on density.

Recent physics studies have found that light can sometimes flow in unexpected ways, behaving like a so-called "superfluid." ...

All the big shots--the governor and leading legislators--profess a terse confidence. Don't worry, they say. This new prison ...

When matter changes from one state to another, it is called a phase change. What starts a phase change? Major Funding by the Laura Moore Cunningham Foundation and the Idaho National Laboratory.

Two scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have discovered a new phase of matter while studying a model system of a magnetic material.

All phases of matter are formed undergoing a phase transition which breaks a symmetry of the system.

Along with another quantum phase, the Mott insulator, the newly observed Bose glass, and the superfluid make up the ground states of the Bose-Hubbard model that describes the physics of bosons in ...

The first two-dimensional Bose glass—a unique phase of matter that defies statistical mechanics—has been developed by physicists at Cambridge’s Cavendish Laboratory. The study's specifics ...

Scientists at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge have created a new phase of matter, called a Bose glass, that challenges traditional understanding of how particles behave. This discovery ...

Bose glasses and superfluids are distinct phases of matter like ice and liquid water. However, like ice cubes in a cup of water, the atoms in their system can form both phases within the same ...
