Quark-gluon plasma, the state of matter previously believed to require heavy nuclei like lead, has been confirmed forming in oxygen and neon nuclei 12 times lighter, in a Physical Review Letters ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
