Colloidal self-assembly is a process where colloidal particles spontaneously organize into ordered structures under specific ...

For decades, scientists believed that lead-208, a "doubly magic" and highly stable atomic nucleus, was perfectly spherical.

Supersolids are a strange quantum state of matter that combines properties of solids and liquids. Now they've gotten even ...

A new technique in detector fabrication could change high-energy physics forever. By using additive manufacturing, ...

For the first time, researchers transformed light into a quantum crystalline structure to create a "supersolid" that's both solid and liquid at the same time. Here’s what that means, and why it's such ...

An international collaboration has shown that additive manufacturing offers a realistic way to build large-scale plastic scintillator detectors for particle physics experiments.

Scientists have observed photons behaving as a supersolid, a unique quantum state where particles form a rigid structure but ...

With properties of a superfluid but with a crystalline structure, supersolids have previously only been observed in ultracold ...
