[MUSIC] JOAN CARTAN-HANSEN, HOST: There are four basic states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. When matter changes from one state to another, it's called a phase change.

Physicists with the U.S. Department of Energy have discovered a new phase of matter—and, with apologies to George R. R. Martin, it's something of "a song of ice and fire.". The duo from the ...

Phase diagram: Mapping nuclear phase changes is like studying how water changes under different conditions of temperature and pressure (net baryon density for nuclear matter).

As a result of this discovery in 2019, Burch said he and his team wondered why and how a new phase of matter could be possible, as well as if it could be applied to any other areas of science, ...

Phase-change materials (PCMs) show promise for this, and now engineers at Texas A&M have developed a new PCM composite that can be 3D printed. ... The research was published in the journal Matter.

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.
