But look closer and you'll see something just as extraordinary—microscopic crystals that form as that delicious drink dries out. As Stephanie Pappas reports for LiveScience, Italian geologist ...

A new University of Maryland study has revealed a coordinated dance of microscopic particles—breaking ... driving the ...

While the idea that multiple volcanic events took place in the early Jurassic isn't new, this study stands out for assigning dates to these pulses of volcanic activity, by dating microscopic crystals ...

Microscopic crystals could soon be zipping drugs around your body, taking them to diseased organs. In the past, this was thought to be impossible - the crystals, which have special magnetic ...

That's the case at Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, where researchers have found a way to shape microscopic crystals into complex and often beautiful structures. Inspired by ...

A UCLA study shows for the first time how microscopic crystals form sound and gravity sensors inside the inner ear. Located at the ends of cilia — tiny cellular hairs in the ear that move and ...

They're actually microscopic crystal structures many times smaller than the width of a human hair. Minerals can naturally assemble into impressive shapes, even at very tiny scales, and Noorduin's ...

Researchers are surprised to find that ice is flexible and elastic at a microscopic scale when grown as tiny, fiber-like crystals (Science 2021, DOI: 10.1126/science.abh3754). Unlike naturally ...

Faculty of Science has successfully unraveled the chemical reaction responsible for propelling microscopic crystals to leap distances up to hundreds of times their own size when they are exposed ...
