Solid, liquid and gas: The three basic states of matter we know, but there’s a fourth that’s WAY more common than you might think. This week is all about plasma. * We’re not focusing on the kind you ...

A strange, glowing form of matter called dusty plasma turns out to be incredibly sensitive to magnetic fields. Researchers found that even weak fields can change how tiny particles grow, simply by ...

Only recently have scientists realized that most of the universe is neither gaseous, liquid or solid. It is plasma, a lively, tricky, often dangerous state of matter whose distinctive characteristic ...

Plasma, the fourth state of matter, is created by applying electrical energy to a gas, causing ion formation. When an energy source, such as electrical energy or radio waves, transfers energy to gas ...

Warm dense matter occupies the transitional regime between condensed matter and ideal plasmas, characterised by near-solid densities and temperatures of a few to several tens of electronvolts. In this ...
