Researchers have found special atomic patterns called quasicrystals in 3D-printed aluminum alloys ... A traditional crystal is any solid made of atoms or molecules in repeating patterns.

However, these conventional approaches require iteratively relaxing a large number of candidate structures ... that map the atomic arrangement in a crystal lattice to its original positions.

There are only 230 possible ways for atoms to form repeating crystal patterns. Quasicrystals do not fit into any of them; their unique shape lets them form a pattern that fills the space, but never ...

As Noem visited El Salvador and Colombia, Secretary of State Marco Rubio visited Guyana to meet with a number of Caribbean ... what is being done and also the coordination and collaboration ...

NARRATOR: It's crunch time for the 3D crew. And who's going to take home the coveted, and totally pointless, prize of, eh… most properties? Two cubes high-five as they prepare to compete.
