(Phys.org) —A team of researchers with members from several universities in the U.K. has found there is no link between facial symmetry in young people and good health. In their paper published in Proceedings of the Royal ...
Superfluids are an exotic state of matter in which particles flow without experiencing viscosity. Hiroki Ikegami and colleagues from the RIKEN Low Temperature Physics Laboratory in Wako have now observed another remarkable ...

(Phys.org) —When a molten material cools quickly, parts of it may have enough time to grow into orderly crystals. But if the cooling rate is too fast for the entire melt to crystallize, the remaining material ends up in ...
