U.S. government scientists have developed a new phase of matter dubbed 'half ice, half fire,' which unites opposing electron ...

Brookhaven National Laboratory have discovered a new phase of matter while studying a model system of a magnetic material.

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory discovered a new phase a matter called “half-ice, half-fire.” This elemental moniker is a reference to the ...

This would-be catastrophe is fire-ice, the oxymoronic compound frozen deep under the ocean floor. As the oceans are warming, fire-ice is slowly melting and emitting the greenhouse gas methane into ...

The new phase comes in the form of a pattern of electron spins—half of which are highly ordered, or "cold", and the rest of ...

Discovering and controlling exotic physical states is key in condensed matter physics and materials science. It has the ...
