Adding even more pressure caused the oxygen and helium to solidify, resulting in 100-micrometer-long e-oxygen crystals that were surrounded by solid helium and therefore protected from shear stresses.

Despatches from Holland related that a Professor Keesom had solidified that rare and undemonstrative gas, helium, by a process not too costly or laborious to be adopted industrially. By some ...

Two Canadian researchers discovered a new form of matter yesterday. They call it “supersolid helium,” and it’s stiffer than any solid matter ever seen on Earth.
