plasma-the 4th state of matter

[Whack-a-Mole]

I asked a similar question awhile back. The answer seemed to be alot more than I suspected.

From that thread:

By varying enough conditions (temperature, pressure, composition, etc), there’s no practical limit on how many states of matter you could come up with-- When people say 3, they mean three familiar ones.

1. Solid
2. Liquid
3. Gas
4. Plasma
5. Superfluid – Helium II
6. Bose-Einstein condensate
7. Superconductor – though solid in form, it has fundamentally different electrical properties.
8. Neutronium – the stuff neutron stars are made of.
9. Supercritical fluid
10. Quark-Gluon soup – pump in enough energy and you force the quarks to dissociate out of the baryons.

Hard to sort it all out.
