P2916: The Many Phases of Physics in Splash! Spring 2013 (Apr. 13 - 14, 2013)
Did you know that water turning into ice is like your fridge magnet? The universe is full of many different materials and objects that exhibit what are called 'phase transitions.' In this class, we'll explore what this means: how a single substance can exhibit a variety of different, exciting properties (think superconductors!) We will have demonstrations where everyday objects change their behavior in exotic, exciting ways. Along the way, we will explain how simple, beautiful ideas can explain a rich diversity of physical behaviors.
