Running for nearly a century, this quiet experiment proves a “solid” can flow, drop by drop, while generations of scientists ...

This compilation features five liquid nitrogen experiments that show what extreme cold really does to everyday materials. Watch objects freeze almost instantly, turn brittle, and break in ways that ...

Scientists report the first look at electrons moving in real-time in liquid water; the findings open up a whole new field of experimental physics. In an experiment akin to stop-motion photography, ...

An elusive form of matter called a quantum spin liquid isn’t a liquid, and it doesn’t spin — but it sure is quantum. Predicted nearly 50 years ago, quantum spin liquids have long evaded definitive ...
