Once it had been 3D-printed using acrylic polymers, metals, and nylon, the team tested this “new form of matter” under a ...

A supersolid is a paradox of physics — a material that is both solid and liquid at the same time. This contradictory form of ...

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.

A Lego minifig made out of a new material can "melt" through a cage's metal bars before reassembling into its solid form on the other side. Credit: Q. Wang et al., 2023 ...

Matter exists in different states and in some cases can be changed from one state to another. We will identify the properties of the 3 primary states of matter; solids, liquids and gases and get a ...

Decades ago, astronomers estimated that “ordinary” matter (basically everything that isn’t dark matter or dark energy) makes ...

Researchers have created a new class of robots that can shift between solid and liquid forms on demand. In a series of tests, these new bots could change shape to run obstacle courses, carry ...

Look inside a brain cell with Huntington's disease or ALS and you are likely to find RNA clumped together. These solid-like clusters, thought to be irreversible, can act as sponges that soak up ...

Because composition of matter patents are often filed long before first-patient-in, ... The Continuing Evolution of Solid Form Patent Strategies in Pharmaceutical Development – January 23, 2025.

Hong Kong scientists bridged the gap between sci-fi and real life after creating a robot that can transform from solid to liquid like a real-life T-1000 robot from “Terminator 2.” A study ...

Learn about solid, liquids and gases with these interactive learning resources for KS2 Science students aged 7-11 from BBC Bitesize.

Now, another team (led by scientists at Caltech) has developed a not-quite-liquid-not-quite-solid form of matter called polycatenated architected materials (PAMs) that are—put incredibly simply ...
