These results suggest that similar reactions between helium and iron may have occurred within Earth’s core shortly after its formation, trapping much of the primordial helium-3 in the material that ...

The resulting diamond has a hexagonal lattice crystal structure, rather than the normal cubic structure. Hexagonal diamond (or lonsdaleite) was first brought to the attention of scientists more than ...

First identified in 1967, lonsdaleite is the hardest naturally-occuring mineral ever discovered—yes, it’s even harder than diamonds. Lonsdaleite, however, has only been found in meteorites ...

(IDEX Online) - Scientists in China say they have created an artificial form of a mineral called Lonsdaleite, and that is significantly harder than natural diamond. Lonsdaleite is an allotrope of ...

The crystal structure of the complex between the integration host factor (IHF) and DNA revealed that IHF induces two prominent kinks in the bound DNA, forming a U-turn 28, by the partial ...
