States of Matter Beyond Solid, Liquid, Gas (Plasma, Bose–Einstein Condensates)
When we think of matter, we usually stop at solid, liquid, and gas—but the universe has far more to offer. In this episode, we dive into the fascinating states of matter that exist beyond the everyday: plasma, the supercharged fourth state found in stars and lightning, and Bose–Einstein condensates, an exotic form of matter where atoms move in perfect harmony at near absolute zero. We’ll explore how scientists create and study these extreme states, their strange properties, and what they reveal about the fundamental laws of physics.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/kurzgesagt-podcast-science-revealed--6600013/support.
