Charge density waves (CDWs) are ordered, crystal-like patterns in the arrangement of electrons that spontaneously form inside ...

Density describes substances based on much mass they have in a certain volume. Less dense solutions and objects float on top of solutions of greater density. Disposal: Pour the liquids out of the ...

Compare the density of water to that of different liquids. Krystal Balmes and Sahil from the Brooklyn Preschool of Science make predictions about the density of water to that of honey, corn syrup, and ...

Interfacial liquid layers play a central role in a variety of phenomena ranging from friction to molecular recognition. Liquids near a solid surface form an interfacial layer where the molecular ...

A new UBC study published recently in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (PNAS) has unveiled insights into how microscopic organisms such as marine plankton move through water with ...

The particles of a solid are very close together. It melts when it changes from the solid state to the liquid state. The same mass of liquid will have slightly greater volume than the solid. As ...

Using the large synchrotron radiation facility SPring-8 in Japan, a collaboration of researchers from Kumamoto University, the University of Tokyo, and others from Japan and France have precisely ...

The ice in a domestic freezer is remarkably different from the single crystals that form in snow clouds, or even those formed ...
