half ice,' they discovered a 'half ice, half fire' phase in which the behavior of electrons in the two different structures is swapped, and that it can be intentionally manipulated. The structural ...

Arctic sea ice extent for March set a record low in the 47-year satellite data record. Extent was below average everywhere except the East Greenland Sea. Nearly all March monthly average extents since ...

It has the potential to drive advancements in quantum computing and spintronics. While studying a ferrimagnet model, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory ...

but the sharpness of the phase change could also be used in quantum information technology – for example, as a form of storage. Instead of 0s and 1s, you might have fire/ice or ice/fire.

An exotic state of matter has been found lurking within a previous exotic state that was discovered in a magnetic compound last decade. Now, they have found the opposite: a half-ice, half-fire phase, ...

U.S. government scientists have developed a new phase of matter dubbed 'half ice, half fire,' which unites opposing electron spins in a unique magnet.

Following the reported phase equilibria of a coexisting critical density hiatus and a supercritical ... It interpolates to a ground state solid-range constant ρBW(0) at an ice density 82.56 mol/l.

half-ice" phase the duo described in Sr3CuIrO6 early in 2024, after more than a decade studying the phase behaviors of the ferromagnetic material. Induced by the application of an external ...

It consists of a combination of highly ordered "cold" spins and highly disordered "hot" spins, and it has thus been dubbed "half ice, half fire." The researchers discovered the new phase while ...
