Physicists have discovered an exotic new state of matter that takes the form of a highly ordered crystal of subatomic particles. The new state of matter, called a "bosonic correlated insulator," could ...

Supersolid light, a newly discovered phase of matter, represents a groundbreaking leap in our understanding of physics. This phenomenon combines properties of both solids and superfluids, resulting in ...

Microsoft scientists have created a quantum processor that taps into a rare state of matter that was first theorized in the 1930s, paving the way for a processor with a million qubits within years.

Scientists have discovered a new state of matter that isn't a solid, liquid, or gas. Researchers call this new type of material a 'corralled supercooled liquid'. Atoms in a liquid are normally like ...

In Marvel’s Iron Man 2, the protagonist, Tony Stark, creates a new element to power the arc reactor in his chest and the mech suit he wears in superhero mode. It remains one of the coolest cinematic ...

Microsoft announced Wednesday that it has invented an entirely new kind of quantum computer. Its new quantum chip, Majorana 1, is a quantum processor analogous to transistors in classical computers’ ...
