What is another word for condensed matter physics?
Pronunciation: [kəndˈɛnsd mˈatə fˈɪzɪks] (IPA) 
Condensed matter physics can be described using various synonyms. The study of the properties of materials in a highly compacted and densely packed state is known as solid-state physics. Whereas the study of the physical and chemical properties of materials with a defined structure is called materials science. The study of the behavior of electron systems that are strongly correlated is known as many-body physics. Emerging areas of research, including non-equilibrium physics, quantum materials science, and topological insulators, are all classified under the umbrella of condensed matter physics. Researchers in this field use theoretical and experimental approaches to study the properties of condensed matter and its applications in technology.
