The fifth state of matter- what is it?
Submitted by scottyiu on 6 November 2005 - 5:14am.
I know that there is four states of matter: Solid, liquid, gas, plasma. But i heard that there is a fifth that is called "Superatom" that is created when it is really cold. Can anyone please give me some extra information? Thanks! |

Nine states of matter? WOW! i never thought that there were so many.
I may have been brainwashed, though....he convinced me!
:?
Ask your physicist friends how they would generate X-Rays.
Or indeed go to your local A&E deptartment and ask them how their X-Ray machines work.
I'll bet you any money they involve electromagnetism, not gravity...
But apparently nature uses gravity to generate X-Rays?!? :roll:
Because it divides something by zero? :roll:
Try dividing something by zero on your calculator and see what you get... :roll:

..ur these lines seems to b the interesting one...
...i would like to know more abt this...if you dont have any problem sharing the stuff and info with me :)
...i m a computer student but i still have an interest in this field...

I think I'l take the 'does it really matter' option on this one.
*runs*
when something reaches absolute zero all of the atoms kind of collapse into eachother and become almost like one atom. I know there are some good websites that explain this i had to look it up last year unfortunately i forget the exact place to go try searching on google. It is very interesting stuff.
this is the sort of moronic pseudo-science that "physicists" like to indulge in.
On the one hand, they have the Laws of Thermodynamics, which they've never observed failing to work, which tell them that it is *impossible* for anything to ever reach 'absolute zero'.
And certainly, they've never ever observed any matter at absolutely zero....
...however, they'll still blithely tell us with authority what "happens" when you reach it.
That's not science, that's just drivel.
It is not all just theory they have observed the creation of a super atom at nearly a billionth of a degree from absolute zero. They even know how to transport the super atom around in a sort of magnetic conveyor belt. I would not say it isn't true science.... the people who created the super atom won the nobel prize for it. This super super cool temperature and state might also have a real important use someday.
1 x 10^ -9 kelvin is neither a billionth, nor is it absolute zero!
That's like me saying "I know what it's like to be dead!" when i just happened to be in a coma for a week.
