Recent developments within the field of physics have brought forth a groundbreaking discovery: a new state of matter. This revelation, taking place within a laboratory setting, promises not only to ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have discovered a new state of quantum matter. The state exists within a material that the team reports could lead to a new era of self-charging ...

Progress in laser technology has recently enabled many advances in experimental probes and control tools of complex materials, with a focus on the nonlinear response of these solids. Nonlinear probes ...

At the edge of two exotic materials, scientists have discovered a new state of matter called a "quantum liquid crystal" that behaves unlike anything we've seen before. When a conductive Weyl semimetal ...

Scientists have described a ‘half ice, half fire’ state of matter that takes advantage of opposing electron spins. (Image credit: THOM LEACH / SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY via Getty Images) Physicists have ...

A cloud of atoms with a temperature beyond absolute zero – which is also bizarrely hotter than any positive temperature imaginable – could be a mysterious new quantum state of matter. Luca Donini at ...

Microsoft said they created a computer chip that uses a new state of matter that will be capable of running the most powerful computers ever — a potential breakthrough for quantum computing that many ...

In Marvel’s Iron Man 2, the protagonist, Tony Stark, creates a new element to power the arc reactor in his chest and the mech suit he wears in superhero mode. It remains one of the coolest cinematic ...

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. Microsoft’s new quantum chip is based a new ...

A time crystal is a form of matter that shows continuous, repeating patterns over time, much like how atoms in a normal crystal repeat in space. Examples once existed in only complex, quantum matter, ...
