MIT researchers from America have taken a leap towards achieving nuclear fusion, finding key material for the vacuum vessels ...
They are made of olive-green crystals that are composed of magnesium-iron silicate called olivine. This olivine is embedded entirely in a metal. The Natural History Museum explains: “Sometimes ...
The study discovered that by adding iron silicate to the vacuum vessel, helium atoms created by interactions with high energy neutrons will embed themselves uniformly across the vessel instead of ...
Earth’s core could contain helium from the early solar system. The noble gas tucks into gaps in iron crystals under high pressure and temperature.
Iron can form compounds with helium at pressures as low as 5GPa – about 50,000 atmospheres – researchers in Japan report.
