Sentences with phrase «exists at extreme temperatures»

These tiny droplets «flow» in a manner similar to the behavior of the quark - gluon plasma, a state of matter that is a mixture of the sub-atomic particles that makes up protons and neutrons and only exists at extreme temperatures and densities.

Not exact matches

Scientists also study water under more extreme conditions, including at high pressures, where it can exist in the solid state even at room temperature.

The QGP is an extreme state of matter comprising deconfined quarks and gluons (partons) that exists only at temperatures above approximately 160 MeV, a condition met for last time a few microseconds after the Big Bang, or at baryon densities five times higher than normal nuclear densities, speculated to exist inside the core of neutron stars.

Field observations of microbes recovered from deep drill cores, deep mines, and the ocean floor, coupled with laboratory investigations, reveal that microbial life can exist at conditions of extreme temperatures (to above 110ºC) and pressures (to > 10,000 atmospheres) previous thought impossible.

Most organisms that have been investigated display greater sensitivity at extreme temperatures, so as ocean temperatures change, those species that are forced to exist at the edges of their thermal ranges will experience stronger effects of acidification.

3) Any attempt to construct a single global or even Northern Hemisphere temperature covering many centuries will encounter substantial difficulties, as incomplete information from novel proxies will probably not adequately represent the extremes that are experienced at either end of the temperature spectrum, so what is considered the «average» is possibly representative of no climate state that actually ever existed.
