Elusive quantum transformations found near absolute zero

Elusive quantum transformations found near absolute zero
Upton NY (SPX) Sep 18, 2014 - Heat drives classical phase transitions-think solid, liquid, and gas-but much stranger things can happen when the temperature drops. If phase transitions occur at the coldest temperatures imaginable, where quantum mechanics reigns, subtle fluctuations can dramatically transform a material. Scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory and Stony Brook Univer ... more
