is there a state of matter called the supercool state or something..if yes,can someone please elaborate?..if no,can someone please reply about the states of matter..?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
when stuff gets really cold like below 4 Kelvin , it can become an Einstein-Bose condensate
 
Yes, I've seen "superfluid" described as another state of matter.
 
do u mean..like..when gas is exposed to -279 deg celsius..it directly changes into liquid or a superfluid as u may call it..??
 
Please type words properly; you are not "texting".

Try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfluid" . Notice in the first sentence it links to "phases of matter", which is what we are talking about as "states".
