A hidden feature of water, long submerged, has finally been brought to the surface. New experiments have revealed supercooled water’s critical point — a specific pressure and temperature at which two ...

Researchers at Stockholm University have captured the first direct experimental evidence of a long-sought second critical point hidden inside supercooled water, pinning it to roughly 210 Kelvin and a ...

Neuroscientists have spent two decades testing whether the brain sits at a “critical point,” a phase transition between stable and unstable states that would give neural circuits maximum flexibility, ...
