rematerialising
Reforming into substance
Rematerialising is the present participle of rematerialise, meaning to take physical form again after having disappeared or become immaterial.
The word appears most often in science fiction and fantasy contexts—ghosts rematerialising after fading, or characters rematerialising after teleportation: The crew held their breath as the captain began rematerialising on the transporter pad.
