Physicists have observed a strange new quantum phase in a graphene-based system, where a superfluid appears to freeze into a solid-like state. Cooling usually pushes matter through a simple sequence.

Ordinary matter, when cooled, transitions from a gas into a liquid. Cool it further still, and it freezes into a solid.

Crystallization is a well-explored natural phenomenon where atoms or molecules arrange themselves into highly organized solid ...

When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions ...

Abstract: Perception and cognition are core processes that transform external sensory signals into internal representations for knowledge construction and understanding, and in visually impaired ...
