It’s a basic property of matter: Water goes from a liquid to a solid — ice — when the temperature drops below freezing, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit. But science, of course, likes to bend the rules. Enter ...
Tokyo - Researchers at The University of Tokyo discover that the two-body structural entropy is the key quantity to understanding the dynamics of sheared supercooled liquids and also the mechanism ...
