Machine learning is transforming many scientific fields, including computational materials science. For about two decades, ...

The discovery challenges basic assumptions about how metals solidify In A Nutshell Liquid metal contains stationary atoms: ...

Researchers have discovered that not all atoms in a liquid are in motion and that some remain stationary regardless of the ...

They observe for the first time the movement of oxygen atoms in liquid water, revealing life forms and effects for plasma ...

(Nanowerk News) Molecules are so small that we cannot even see them with ordinary microscopes. This makes studying molecules or chemical reactions difficult: researchers are limited to either indirect ...

Nearly all computer models of molecules and materials are based on density functional theory (DFT) approximations. These methods help efficiently simulate the structure, energy, and properties of ...

New insights into a popular and potentially useful model of how electrons behave in solids have been provided by an experiment involving ultracold atoms. Markus Greiner and colleagues at Harvard ...

The Bohr model, introduced by Danish physicist Niels Bohr in 1913, was a key step on the journey to understand atoms. Ancient Greek thinkers already believed that matter was composed of tiny basic ...
