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 ...

For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A ...

High school science misses a lot of the science researchers actually work with. For example, you learn that there are three states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas—but in advanced physics, things get ...

At school we are taught there are four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. In reality, we now know of fifteen states (give-or-take) and counting. At school we are taught there are four ...

Researchers have found a way to turn a liquid metal into a plasma and to observe the temperature where a liquid under high-density conditions crosses over to a plasma state. Their observations have ...
