A team of Leiden researchers has developed a method to study how these droplets transition from liquid to solid. This change plays a role in various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders ...

Is Ranch Dressing a Liquid or a Solid? Imagine you’re sitting down for dinner. You pick up a bottle of ranch dressing, flip it upside down, and expect it to pour onto your plate. But nothing happens.

New research reveals light can behave as a supersolid, paving the way for advancements in quantum computing and optical technologies.

Everything that has mass is matter. In normal everyday life we come across matter in three states, solid, liquid and gas. They have a fixed shape and cannot flow The particles cannot move from ...

Dissolving a solid in a liquid depends on the interactions and attractions between the molecules of the liquid (solvent) and the particles of the solid (solute). Dissolving happens when the attraction ...

Scientists have transformed light into a supersolid, a breakthrough merging solid and liquid properties in quantum physics.

Students are introduced to the idea that matter is composed of atoms and molecules that are attracted to each other and in constant motion. Students explore the attractions and motion of atoms and ...

Structure of solids and liquids is the study of the physical properties of matter in which there is a non-negligible interaction between the constituent atoms or molecules. While the atoms or ...
