6,800 feet-deep solid-state detectors hunt dark matter at temperatures colder than space
Researchers in the US have made significant progress in the hunt for dark matter ...
New research reveals that Earth’s solid inner core is actually in a superionic state, where carbon atoms flow freely through a solid iron lattice. This unusual behavior makes the core soft, matching ...
Physicist Prof. Frank Pollmann was awarded the 2026 Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize on March 18. In this interview, he explains why matter sometimes ...
For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A wave of recent experiments is now tearing at those boundaries, revealing ...
This superionic state of matter would neatly explain some unusual behavior in the core, such as the way it slows certain waves, and measurements that suggest it's squishy like butter rather than rigid ...
