Is Supercool a Valid State of Matter?

AI Thread Summary
Supercooling refers to the process where a substance is cooled below its freezing point without solidifying, but it is not officially recognized as a distinct state of matter. At extremely low temperatures, such as below 4 Kelvin, matter can enter states like Bose-Einstein condensates or superfluids. Superfluidity is a phenomenon observed in certain liquids at very low temperatures, where they flow without viscosity. The discussion highlights the importance of precise terminology when discussing states of matter and encourages proper communication. Understanding these concepts is essential for grasping advanced physics topics.

is there a state of matter called the supercool state or something..if yes,can someone please elaborate?..if no,can someone please reply about the states of matter..?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
when stuff gets really cold like below 4 Kelvin , it can become an Einstein-Bose condensate
 
Yes, I've seen "superfluid" described as another state of matter.
 
do u mean..like..when gas is exposed to -279 deg celcius..it directly changes into liquid or a superfluid as u may call it..??
 
Please type words properly; you are not "texting".

Try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfluid" . Notice in the first sentence it links to "phases of matter", which is what we are talking about as "states".

Thread 'Is there a white hole inside every black hole?'
This is what I am thinking. How much feasible is it? There is a white hole inside every black hole The white hole spits mass/energy out continuously The mass/energy that is spit out of a white hole drops back into it eventually. This is because of extreme space time curvature around the white hole Ironically this extreme space time curvature of the space around a white hole is caused by the huge mass/energy packed in the white hole Because of continuously spitting mass/energy which keeps...
