Explore the fundamental concept of matter in physics, everything that makes up the physical world around us. Matter is not ...

How do scientists use the states of matter to create new inventions? Scientists care about the state of matter so they can explain why things happen or how to develop new uses. Meet a material ...

The four fundamental states of matter are solid, liquid, gas and plasma, but there others, such as Bose-Einstein condensates and time crystals, that are man-made.

The state of matter is a deceptively simple concept. It turns out that any material, no matter what it is made of, can exist in one of three forms: solid, liquid or gas. These are categories of ...

How are football and states of matter alike?

New Hampshire has long lagged behind other states when it comes to the availability of full-day kindergarten. Legislators are likely to take up the issue… ...

Everyone knows solid, liquid, and gas—but what about time crystals, quark-gluon plasma, and Bose-Einstein condensates?

Solids, liquids, and gases are just the beginning. These are five more states of matter that you probably never knew existed.

By shining a strong beam of light through two chemical compounds, scientists discovered a unique new state of matter made of particles called excitons.

An exotic, ultracold state of matter on Earth is helping scientists study the behavior of "fuzzy" dark matter.

Quantum physicists have discovered a new state of matter called topological superconductivity, which could increase storage capabilities in electronic devices.

In this lab, students will fill out a foldable on the three primary states of matter. Students will watch a video showing ice melting from a solid to a liquid and boiling from a liquid to a gas.
