Physicists have upended a foundational law of materials science by heating gold to over 19,000°C — more than 14 times its ...

We demonstrate that configurational electronic entropy, previously neglected, in ab initio thermodynamics of materials can qualitatively modify the finite-temperature phase stability of mixed-valence ...

Large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been utilized to reveal the atomistic deformation mechanisms of a CrCoNi medium-entropy alloy (MEA) with gradient nano-grained (GNG) structure in ...

High-temperature shock (HTS) is an emerging synthesis method with kinetics-dominated non-equilibrium characteristics, which can achieve an ultrafast heating/cooling rate of ~10 5 K/s and a peak ...

The present work aims to study the possible states of matter and the location of phase boundaries between hadronic gas and the quark-gluon plasma QGP. The boundary at the hadron freeze-out is also ...

In quantum mechanics, particles have a new type of probabilistic property, which is quantum wave probability. The quantum wave probability corresponds to the quantum wave entropy. The action in ...
