The most famous packing problem concerns spheres. In 1611, the astronomer Johannes Kepler proposed that the densest way to ...

With a sub-$1,000 price, exceptional quality, and innovative resin management features, the Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max is a ...

(Chen et al., Nature Materials, 2025) "Natural and synthetic diamonds mostly have a cubic lattice, whereas a rare hexagonal structure – known as hexagonal diamond (HD) – has been largely unexplored ...

A lattice vector quantization encoding method is developed based on ℓ 1 -norm-based enumeration and bit-plane coding. The algorithm is implemented for the cubic lattice, can handle arbitrary vector ...

Plastic ice VII has the same cubic structure as regular ice VII, but as the name suggests it’s a little more flexible. While the molecules are still locked in a rigid cubic lattice, they can ...

The researchers focused on a cubic lattice with braces comprising a “braced-cubic” design. Credit: Courtesy of the researchers Researchers at MIT have developed a design framework for controlling ...

Though lattice QCD attempts this by discretising space–time in a cubic lattice, the results are time consuming and limited in precision by computational power. Predictions rely on approximate ...

They consist in rotated cubic lattice constellations with full diversity in small dimensions. Based on the minimum product distance, a relevant performance parameter, they appear to be better than all ...

Look at the cubic pyrite crystals. It’s almost hard to believe something like that is natural. Image via Wiki Commons. Crystals are solid substances where atoms, molecules, or ions are packed in ...

Using a cubic lattice, the researchers measured specific energy shifts within the array of strontium-87 atoms due to dipole-dipole interactions. With a high density of atoms, these mHz-level frequency ...
