Complex many-body systems can display qualitatively new physics. The search for such emergent phenomena is a central goal of condensed matter physics. My research is focused on the search for new ...

Condensed matter theory is a field of physics that ... However, even in those limited cases, rich emergent phenomena such as collective excitations or fractionally charged emergent "quasi ...

Brookhaven National Laboratory have discovered a new phase of matter while studying a model system of a magnetic material.

Systems of motile interacting units (active matter) exhibit fascinating emergent phenomena such as self-organization and directed motion at large scales. Familiar examples are flocks of birds, schools ...

Condensed-matter physics is the study of substances ... in distortions increases device resistance. Surface tension phenomena are crucial in determining the properties of confined nanosystems.

"Our experiment marks the first experimental substantiation of this concept of gravitons, posited by pioneering works in quantum gravity since the 1930s, in a condensed matter system," said ...
