When water freezes into ice or boils into vapour, its properties change dramatically at specific temperatures. These so-called phase transitions are fundamental to understanding materials. But how do ...

The study of nonequilibrium phase transitions encompasses the investigation of abrupt changes in a system’s collective behaviour when driven far from thermal equilibrium. Unlike classical equilibrium ...

Lattice gas models provide a discrete framework for investigating phase transitions in statistical physics, where particles occupy the nodes of a lattice and interact according to specified rules.

Scientists present new insights into the complex nature of phase transitions in magnetic nanomaterials. Their findings pave the way for ultra-sensitive sensors. (Nanowerk News) When water freezes into ...

Phase transitions, like water freezing into ice, are a familiar part of our world. But in quantum systems, they can behave even more dramatically, with quantum properties such as Heisenberg ...

Researchers have achieved a remarkable result: capturing and studying phase changes in quantum hardware, which hold hold promise for next-generation technologies like quantum computing and ...

Physicists with the U.S. Department of Energy have discovered a new phase of matter—and, with apologies to George R. R. Martin, it's something of "a song of ice and fire." The new phase comes in the ...
