Describing matter under extreme conditions, such as those found inside neutron stars, remains an unsolved problem. The ...

The field of condensed matter physics explores the macroscopic and microscopic properties of matter. Condensed Matter physicists study how matter arises from a large number of interacting atoms and ...

Almost 100 years ago, a revolutionary discovery was made in the field of physics: microscopic matter exhibits wave properties. Over the decades, more and more precise experiments have been used to ...

Ah, yes, the three states of matter: Solids, liquids, and gases. What a simple way to understand our physical world. Of course, if you remember a bit of high school science, you probably recall a ...

In the last three decades, condensed matter physicists have discovered a wonderland of exotic new phases of matter: emergent, collective states of interacting particles that are nothing like the ...

Before scientists discovered the new state of matter last week, we were basically all used to just three states of matter. After all, during our daily lives we encounter some variety of solids, ...

Dark matter is one of the most mysterious and yet most ubiquitous substances in the Universe. While things like human beings, the Earth, the Sun, and everything that emits or absorbs light in space ...

Two recent papers (Proc. I. Mech. E., 151, No. 2; 1944) deal with the properties of materials, and are of particular interest. "A Renaissance of Mechanical Properties", by Sq.-Leader A. C. Vivian, is ...

The 2016 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to David Thouless, Duncan Haldane and Michael Kosterlitz, three theoretical physicists whose research used the unexpected mathematical lens of topology ...

Students will learn how to categorize matter as either pure substances or mixtures. Students will apply tests, based on physical properties of matter samples, to determine whether a mixture is ...
