A research team led by Prof. Pavel Jungwirth at the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Czech Academy of ...

In this month's issue, we present our first 'Focus' — a collection of specially commissioned review and opinion pieces — on the topic of quantum phase transitions. The most familiar examples ...

Prior research has shown that when a superconductor undergoes a phase transition between superconductivity ... monitor the superfluid stiffness of a sample. They found that rather than seeing ...

A research team from the University of Coimbra has developed a soft phase change actuator for robots that uses the transition ...

This process is known as a Phase Transition and the amount of heat energy required to transform unit mass from one phase to the other is known as the Heat of Transformation. The solid to liquid ...

The underlying physical mechanism of crystallization is a phase transition at which the static ... albeit on very large timescales (see, for example, ref. 1). The authors measure the evolution ...
