Researchers have found that 2D materials can self-form microscopic cavities that trap light and electrons, altering their ...

A supersolid is a paradoxical state of matter—it is rigid like a crystal but flows without friction like a superfluid. This ...

Researchers used a 58-qubit quantum processor to realize and probe a Floquet topological phase, revealing exotic non-equilibrium matter beyond classical reach. (Nanowerk News) Unlike conventional ...

Researchers have for the first time created a reconfigurable polariton 2D quasicrystal. The team from the Skolkovo Institute ...

Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) are fascinating states of matter that emerge when atoms or molecules are cooled to extremely ...

The story begins with the black hole information paradox. According to relativity, anything that falls into a black hole is ...

Researchers in Konstanz discovered a way to manipulate materials with light by exciting magnon pairs, reshaping their ...

In the extremely early universe, primordial black holes could acquire a "dark charge," giving them an unnaturally long lifetime. This makes them an interesting, if exotic, candidate for dark matter, ...

The pursuit of faster-than-light travel has long been a staple of science fiction, but recent advancements in theoretical physics suggest that warp drives could one day become a reality. Scientists ...

Hypothetical particles called axions have been sought by physicists for decades, as they are the leading candidate for what makes up dark matter. But we may not need new experiments to find exotic ...

Bring together a large number of particles and they can order themselves in unusual ways. This can give rise to emergent phenomena that cannot be understood solely in terms of the interactions that ...

In 2009, Jesse Rose and a small group of friends began growing medical marijuana in a pole barn in Michigan, driven by a passion for quality cannabis. Sixteen years later, their company, Exotic Matter ...
