A new Nature Physics study has shed light on the long-hypothesized liquid-liquid critical point where water simultaneously exists in two distinct liquid forms, opening new possibilities for ...

Liquid water exhibits a remarkable range of dynamic behaviours and phase transformations that remain at the forefront of scientific investigation. Its complex hydrogen‐bonding network gives rise to ...

Researchers used cloud point measurements to construct a phase diagram. The solid lines represent the droplet density, while the dashed lines represent the solution density. Crystallization is a ...

Understanding liquid states of water at very low temperatures is important for earth sciences and biology but is difficult because supercooled liquid water is very unstable. A new computational study ...

Researchers were shocked to discover that what was thought to be a quantum state is actually an entirely new phase of matter.

Magnetic materials in a quantum spin liquid phase are of great interest in the pursuit of exotic state of matter and quantum ...

In a discovery that reshapes how scientists understand liquids, researchers have shown that microscopic oil droplets suspended in water can fold themselves into precise, six-pointed star shapes while ...
