Most people haven't heard of the field, yet more than a third of physicists identify as condensed matter researchers, making it the most active area in the subject--with good reason. Condensed matter is the solids, liquids, and gasses that surround us--and the more exotic matters--which dictate every aspect of our present existence, and hold the keys to a brighter future, from quantum computing to real-life invisibility cloaks"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Adult New Books 530 Fl Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 530 Fl Checked In Add Copy to MyList
