As part of a research programme designed to study the kinetics of nucleation in solutions of electrolytes, I have made some observations on the supercooling of water droplets in the form of water ...

Supercooling, a state where liquids don't solidify even below their normal freezing point, still puzzles scientists today. An example of this phenomenon is found everyday in meteorology: clouds in ...

Spin glasses are founded in the frustration and randomness of microscopic magnetic interactions. They are non-ergodic systems where replica symmetry is broken. Although magnetic glassy behaviour ...

A new technique can preserve organs for days before transplanting them, US researchers claim. "Supercooling" combines chilling the organ and pumping nutrients and oxygen through its blood vessels ...
