Water isn't just liquid, ice, or vapor — under extreme conditions, it can transform into exotic phases, such as the newly ...

In everyday life, we typically encounter water in one of three familiar states – solid, liquid or gas. But there are in fact many more phases, some of which – predicted to exist at high temperature ...

Earlier this week we broke down the complexities of mixed-phase precipitation forecasting.Within that we briefly touched on a key component to that complexity w ...

Based on the interlocking structure of chainmail, this material has all the best parts of both solids and liquids.

Researchers have discovered a method to induce chirality in non-chiral materials using terahertz light. This groundbreaking ...

Superionic materials are a class of materials that simultaneously present properties that are characteristic of solids and ...

Solid materials are often described as crystalline lattices. This is what you see in the classic ball-and-stick models of atomic, chemical, or larger crystalline structures. It is these materials ...

The chemical composition of a material alone sometimes reveals little about its properties. The decisive factor is often the arrangement of the molecules in the atomic lattice structure or on the ...
