A quantum spin liquid is a phase of matter in which the magnetic moments in a material do not align or freeze, even at ...

Negative pressure governs not only the Universe or the quantum vacuum. This phenomenon, although of a different nature, appears also in liquid crystals confined in nanopores. At the Institute of ...

Gases like propane and butane take up way too much space to ship economically, so engineers use a clever combination of ...

The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE physics students studying calculating pressure, pressure in a liquid and atmospheric pressure. If you struggled with the quiz, don't panic - we've got ...

Pressure-temperature (P-T) phase diagram of a NaYbSe2 single crystal. Courtesy: Run-Ze Yu Researchers in China report that they have observed both superconductivity and an insulator-to-metal ...

Pressure is one of the canonical thermodynamic variables which control the equilibrium conditions of a physical system and, as such, it has been used for centuries as a control parameter to drive a ...

Physicists have demonstrated a new type of tunable liquid lens whose focus can be changed simply by varying the pressure on it. The lens is formed from the curved interface between a liquid and air at ...

We again have a leopard visiting us on the IIT Kanpur campus. We already have porcupines, a million dogs, nilgais, snakes, and scorpions. Leopards are a new addition to this thriving ecosystem. It’s ...
