In a groundbreaking study, scientists at Brookhaven National Lab uncovered a new phase of matter dubbed "half ice, half fire" ...

Induced by the application of an external magnetic field, the previously identified "half-fire, half-ice" state sees disordered, "hot" spins on the copper atoms, and fully ordered, "cold" spins on ...

Scientists have discovered a surprising magnetic spin phase where order and disorder mix, challenging old ideas.

Yin and Tsvelik continued to look into the phase behaviors of Sr 3 CuIrO 6 and, in 2016, found the "half-fire, half-ice" phase. In this state, which is induced by a critical external magnetic field, ...

“There’s no rhyme or reason outside of racial scapegoating.” ICE disputes that the field office is a detention facility and refers to it as a holding room. Jennifer Blalock, an Owings Mills ...

What he’d make of a new “half-ice, half-fire” phase of matter discovered ... between those states—are central problems in the fields of condensed matter physics and materials science ...

The specific ferrimagnet in which "half ice, half fire" was observed is Sr3CuIrO6, a compound that consists of strontium, copper, iridium and oxygen. It's the same material in which the team ...

"Half ice, half fire" is notable not only because it has ... transitions between those states—are central problems in the fields of condensed matter physics and materials science," said Yin.
