Physicists at Washington University have forged ahead in the field of quantum mechanics by creating a new phase of matter ...

When water freezes into ice or boils into vapor, its properties change dramatically at specific temperatures. These so-called phase transitions are fundamental to understanding materials. But how do ...

Researchers have achieved a remarkable result: capturing and studying phase changes in quantum hardware, which hold hold promise for next-generation technologies like quantum computing and ...

The video explains the unique properties of water (H2O) compared to other substances like benzene, particularly focusing on density, expansion, and contraction with temperature changes. Ice floats on ...

In their ongoing efforts to push the boundaries of quantum possibilities, physicists in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis have created a new type of "time crystal," a novel phase ...

This capability is rooted in the selective interaction of CP light with the stereogenic (non-superimposable) molecular geometry of chiral substances ... such as polarizers and phase retarders, ...
