The Mpemba effect is an intriguing physical phenomenon that causes some systems to cool faster when they are hot than when ...

In physics, chilling out isn’t as simple as it seems. A hot object can cool more quickly than a warm one, a new study finds. When chilled, a warmer system cooled off in less time than it took a cooler ...

In a new Nature Communications study, scientists have demonstrated the quantum version of the strong Mpemba effect (sME) in a ...

Does hot water freeze faster than cold water? On its face this idea seems like it should be ridiculously simple to test, and even easier to intuit, but this question has in fact had physicists arguing ...

The Mpemba effect, in which hot systems cool faster than cold ones under the same conditions, was first described by Aristotle more than 2,000 years ago. In 1963 it was rediscovered by Tanzanian ...

The question I have is - under which conditions would you say that the experiment shows the reasoning wrong, instead of experiment itself having been 'done wrong'? For example - if you do something as ...
