Elisa Oviedo transforms water from liquid to solid. Elisa Oviedo and her niece change water from liquid to solid using a freezer. Then they heat water up on the stove until it turns into gas. Elisa ...

In a paper in Nature, Gökçe et al. 1 report a clever solution to a fundamental problem in microfluidics: a simple and inexpensive method for delivering a liquid to multiple dried reagents that doesn’t ...

Researchers show that transition from liquid to solid is important for the function of membraneless organelles. The term 'phase transition' might initially conjure up images of ice melting or water ...

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 ...

In school, students are taught that matter is either solid, liquid, or gas. Now, physicists discover that atoms can actually exist as solid and liquid simultaneously. It turns out, when certain ...

The term ‘phase transition’ might initially conjure up images of ice melting or water vapour condensing on a cold glass. In biology, phase transition plays a role in processes such as lipid bilayer ...
