Using advanced electron microscopy, researchers have watched individual atoms transition from chaotic liquid motion to ordered solid structure, revealing that the boundary between liquid and solid ...

Theoretical physicists along with an experimental team have found evidence of a quantum spin liquid in a material known as pyrochlore cerium stannate. They achieved this by combining state-of-the-art ...

Scientists have discovered a new state of matter that isn't a solid, liquid, or gas. Researchers call this new type of material a 'corralled supercooled liquid'. Atoms in a liquid are normally like ...

Adapted from an article run in CU Boulder Today by Daniel Strain A team led by RASEI Fellow Ivan Smalyukh has discovered a new type of liquid crystal that exists in perpetual, rhythmic motion, ...
