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 ...

Crystallization is a well-explored natural phenomenon where atoms or molecules arrange themselves into highly organized solid forms called crystals. This phenomenon has been widely utilized across ...

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is a peculiar phenomenon that occurs during crystallization. In a new study, a group of researchers from Doshisha University, Japan, have investigated the ...

This schematic illustrates the MALIO software, a machine learning structure analysis tool designed to analyze and distinguish the local structures of BP I and BP II liquid crystal phases. By ...

Water, this seemingly ordinary molecule, continues to reveal unexpected properties. Scientists have simulated never-before-observed behavior, opening up new perspectives. The team from the University ...

Researchers used cloud point measurements to construct a phase diagram. The solid lines represent the droplet density, while the dashed lines represent the solution density. Crystallization is a ...
