Converting methane, the primary component of natural gas, into higher alkanes and hydrogen, could be highly advantageous.

Researchers from National Taiwan University break traditional frameworks by unveiling a new symmetry-transition mechanism in ...

A team of Rice University researchers reported the first direct observation of a surprising quantum phenomenon predicted over half a century ago, opening pathways for revolutionary applications in ...

Seismicity decreases with depth, though it turns to increase in the mantle transition zone. It has been believed that ...

Percolation theory constitutes a cornerstone of statistical physics, offering a framework to understand how local connectivity in systems gives rise to macroscopic phase transitions. Originally ...

Researchers explore the transformation dynamics of cubic liquid crystals using direct simulation and machine learning, offering new possibilities for advanced materials development. Researchers have ...

The study of nonequilibrium phase transitions encompasses the investigation of abrupt changes in a system’s collective behaviour when driven far from thermal equilibrium. Unlike classical equilibrium ...

In their research, Hasenfratz, Catterall, and Butt used renormalization group (RG) theory to study the more complex phase ...
