At extreme pressures and temperatures, water becomes superionic — a solid that behaves partly like a liquid and conducts ...

Magnetism is usually taught as a story of straight lines, with field arrows marching neatly from north to south. In a lab at Florida State University, that picture has just been shattered by a new ...

A new crystal structure (atomic arrangement pattern) called the P21/c-8 type, which is predicted to be achieved under very high pressure, such as deep inside the Earth.

Color coding makes aerial maps much more easily understood. Through color, we can tell at a glance where there is a road, forest, desert, city, river or lake. Working with several universities, the ...

(Nanowerk News) Metal nanoclusters are tiny, crystalline structures up to two nanometers (2 x 10-9 meters) in diameter that contain a few to hundreds of metal atoms. Understanding the precise assembly ...

In 1912, scientists invented X-ray crystallography and revealed a crystal’s atomic structure for the first time Tess Joosse Humans have marveled at crystals for millennia. Viridescent emerald, rich ...

A research team invents new method to accelerate materials discoveries through rapid clustering and color coding of large X-ray data sets to reveal previously hidden structural changes that occur as ...

Machine learning method for harnessing large volumes of X-ray data will speed materials discovery. Color coding makes aerial maps much more easily understood. Through color, we can tell at a glance ...
