The wildest trampoline in the world swings sideways and "around corners." Yet, no one can jump on it, because it's not even a ...

Then hundreds of thousands of plausible crystal structures are generated and the most stable are selected by their lattice energy, the energy that causes the crystal to bind. Lattice energy is the sum ...

The other way is to alter its crystal structure and makeup ... is less compact than the face-centered lattice. High-temperature austenite, an FCC structure, has enough space for carbon atoms ...

Our optical lattice has the exact same geometry ... For instance, a plot of the band structure of silicon crystal, a common material used to make rooftop solar cells, shows a forbidden energy ...

Using new imaging, Huber and his colleagues hope to uncover trails of destruction from long-ago dark matter interactions inside crystal lattice structures - a pattern of atoms found in a mineral ...

while also containing a spatial arrangement similar to a crystal lattice structure. Typically, quantum supersolids have only been formed via ultracold atoms, but a new study—led by scientists at ...
