Recent developments within the field of physics have brought forth a groundbreaking discovery: a new state of matter. This ...

Your science textbook likely told you that matter exists in four states. You know them as solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. For generations, this understanding formed the foundation of physics. Now, a ...

Researchers from Rutgers University have discovered a new way in which matter can exist. Dubbed a “Quantum Liquid Crystal,” this previously unknown quantum state expands researchers' understanding of ...

The quantum world is already full of surprises, but a new discovery has added an entire wing to what scientists call the ...

Scientists have discovered a new way that matter can exist—one that is different from the usual states of solid, liquid, gas or plasma—at the interface of two exotic materials made into a sandwich.

Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed ...

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 ...
