Target entity: States of Matter
Context triple: [David L. Goodstein, notableWork, States of Matter]
  • A. Strength of Solids
    Strength of Solids is a seminal work in materials science that analyzes how and why solid materials deform and fail under various mechanical stresses.
  • B. Part VII: Matter and Motion
    Part VII: Matter and Motion is a section of Bertrand Russell’s *The Principles of Mathematics* that applies his logical and philosophical analysis to the concepts of physical matter, space, time, and motion.
  • C. Physics, Chemistry and Engineering
    Physics, Chemistry and Engineering is a category of the Japan Prize that honors groundbreaking scientific and technological achievements in the physical sciences, chemical sciences, and engineering fields.
  • D. Bose–Einstein condensate
    A Bose–Einstein condensate is an exotic state of matter formed when a dilute gas of bosons is cooled to temperatures near absolute zero, causing a large fraction of the particles to occupy the same quantum state and behave as a single quantum entity.
