Several startups, including Factorial Energy, QuantumScape, and SES AI, have advanced to the sample delivery and pilot runs for semi-solid or quasi-solid-state batteries, with the first-generation ...

Italian scientists have achieved a groundbreaking feat by "freezing" light, revealing that it can exist as a supersolid—a rare state of matter that combines solid-like structure with frictionless flow ...

New research reveals light can behave as a supersolid, paving the way for advancements in quantum computing and optical technologies. In a breakthrough, Italian scientists have successfully ...

Long theorized but only recently created, a supersolid has a crystalline structure like a regular solid, but it can also, counterintuitively, flow freely like a fluid. "We can imagine the supersolid ...

AI company Sesame has released the base model that powers Maya, the impressively realistic voice assistant. The model, which is 1 billion parameters in size (“parameters” referring to ...

A ring or sphere could, apparently ... to show that Saturn’s rings can’t be a uniform solid. Instead, they must be a collection of rocks or ice or other space stuff, all held together in ...

A supersolid is a special type of matter that flows like a liquid but has a solid-like structure. Until now, scientists had only seen this state in extremely cold gases. This new experiment proves ...
