Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

There's solid. And there's liquid. And now there's something in between called chain melt. "At an atomic level you have this interaction and this mixup between liquid and solid." Andreas Hermann is a ...

(Nanowerk News) Chemist John Dalton proposed the theory that all matter and objects are made up of particles called atoms, and this is still accepted by the scientific community, almost two centuries ...

Metallic glass is an important advanced alloy, holding promise for broad engineering applications. It appears as a solid form in many aspects, with beautiful metal appearance, exceeding elasticity, ...

In recent months, I’ve mentioned super-solids a couple of times, which is a bit unusual for something we haven’t been sure actually exists. However, a recent paper seems to offer some quite strong ...

Chemist John Dalton proposed the theory that all matter and objects are made up of particles called atoms, and this is still accepted by the scientific community, almost two centuries later. Each of ...
