Recent developments within the field of physics have brought forth a groundbreaking discovery: a new state of matter. This revelation, taking place within a laboratory setting, promises not only to ...

Matter is an inquisitive subject for scientists to investigate. Despite being so overwhelmingly surrounded by matter, there is a lot that is yet to be understood about it. Recently, researchers found ...

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.

How is plasma used on Earth? Plasma happens when gas gets heated to a very high temperature and the atoms lose their electrons. Find out more about this state of matter. Major Funding by the Laura ...

At the edge of two exotic materials, scientists have discovered a new state of matter called a "quantum liquid crystal" that behaves unlike anything we've seen before. When a conductive Weyl semimetal ...

A cloud of atoms with a temperature beyond absolute zero – which is also bizarrely hotter than any positive temperature imaginable – could be a mysterious new quantum state of matter. Luca Donini at ...

Microsoft said they created a computer chip that uses a new state of matter that will be capable of running the most powerful computers ever — a potential breakthrough for quantum computing that many ...

In Marvel’s Iron Man 2, the protagonist, Tony Stark, creates a new element to power the arc reactor in his chest and the mech suit he wears in superhero mode. It remains one of the coolest cinematic ...

Microsoft’s new “topological qubit” is not based on a solid, liquid or gas. It is another phase of matter that many experts did not think was possible. Microsoft’s new quantum chip is based a new ...

A time crystal is a form of matter that shows continuous, repeating patterns over time, much like how atoms in a normal crystal repeat in space. Examples once existed in only complex, quantum matter, ...
