The notion of a topological state of matter, a phase of matter distinct from solids, liquids, or gases, might sound like ...

Scientists have discovered a new state of matter, branded 'half ice, half fire', which could spur developments in quantum computing. Researchers Weiguo Yin and Alexei Tsvelik, from the U.S ...

Facebook X Reddit Email Save. The matter making up the world around us has long-since been organized into three neat categories: solids, liquids and gases. But last month, Microsoft announced that ...

Microsoft’s new “topological qubit” is not based on a solid, liquid or gas. It is another phase of matter that many experts did not think was possible. Microsoft’s new quantum chip is ...

Researchers from Duke University wanted to see whether they could cool indium to the point that its atoms could be moved around to create a new state of matter. And recently, they succeeded in ...

The method they developed, outlined in a paper published in Physical Review Letters, was trained to find the lowest-energy quantum state (i.e., ground state) of fractional quantum Hall liquids.

REDMOND — Anyone who has sat through a third-grade science class knows three primary states of matter exist: solid, liquid and gas. Microsoft now says it has created a new state of matter in its ...
