    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_of_matter

    Time crystals: A state of matter where an object can have movement even at its lowest energy state. Hidden states of matter: Phases that are unattainable or do not exist in thermal equilibrium, but can be induced e.g. by photoexcitation. Microphase separation: Constituent units forming diverse phases while also keeping united.

  3. Phase (matter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(matter)

    In the physical sciences, a phase is a region of material that is chemically uniform, physically distinct, and (often) mechanically separable. In a system consisting of ice and water in a glass jar, the ice cubes are one phase, the water is a second phase, and the humid air is a third phase over the ice and water.

  4. State of matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_matter

    The term phase is sometimes used as a synonym for state of matter, but it is possible for a single compound to form different phases that are in the same state of matter. For example, ice is the solid state of water, but there are multiple phases of ice with different crystal structures , which are formed at different pressures and temperatures.

  5. Phases of Matter (film) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phases_of_Matter_(film)

    Phases of Matter is a 2020 documentary directed by Deniz Tortum about the Cerrahpaşa Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey. It premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2020, [1] and won the Best Documentary Award in Both Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival and Istanbul International Film Festival.

  6. Matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter

    Phases are sometimes called states of matter, but this term can lead to confusion with thermodynamic states. For example, two gases maintained at different pressures are in different thermodynamic states (different pressures), but in the same phase (both are gases).

  7. Timeline of states of matter and phase transitions - Wikipedia

    2000 – CERN announced quark-gluon plasma, a new phase of matter. [28] 2023 – Physicists from US and China discovered a new state of matter called the chiral bose-liquid state [29] 2024 – Harvard researchers working with Quantinuum announced a new phase of matter non-Abelian topological order [30]

  8. Phase transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_transition

    Phase transitions commonly refer to when a substance transforms between one of the four states of matter to another. At the phase transition point for a substance, for instance the boiling point, the two phases involved - liquid and vapor, have identical free energies and therefore are equally likely to exist. Below the boiling point, the ...

  9. Condensed matter physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensed_matter_physics

    Condensed matter physics is the field of physics that deals with the macroscopic and microscopic physical properties of matter, especially the solid and liquid phases, that arise from electromagnetic forces between atoms and electrons. More generally, the subject deals with condensed phases of matter: systems of many constituents with strong ...
