Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden discovered a new phenomenon that changes what we know about ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a powerful method to look deep inside single-atom catalysts—materials where every ...

Scientists have created a new machine learning algorithm that can be applied to crystallography, allowing researchers to near-perfectly infer the atomic structure of nanocrystals from simple ...

The algorithm was able to determine the atomic structure from nanometer-sized crystals of various shapes, including samples that had proven too difficult for previous experiments to characterize.

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is discussing plans to eliminate an entire team responsible for publishing and maintaining critical atomic measurement data in the ...

Image from Wikemedia Commons. Many materials have their atoms arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure — a crystal — including most metals, rocks, ceramics and ice, among others.

The international collaboration team was even able to use this data to obtain direct information about the deformation of the atomic nucleus along the ytterbium isotope chain. This can provide new ...

Even though emeralds and rubies are very different colors, they both have the same secret ingredient in their atomic structure.

Niels Bohr 's Nobel Lecture on December 11, 1922, titled The Structure of the Atom, is one of the most significant contributions to our understanding of atomic structure and quantum mechanics ...

Probing neptunium's atomic structure with laser spectroscopy by Clare Sansom, SciencePOD The mass separator used in the experiments. Green: ion trajectory; blue and violet, laser beams.

The theory was developed by Neils Bohr's great-grandson. The use of a special type of atom could make even the most advanced atomic clocks more precise, scientists believe. If confirmed, this ...
