Wie das «Einhorn der Meere» zu seiner Helix kam
Synchrotronlicht zeigt erstmals, wie die Spiralform des Narwal-Stosszahns in der Anordnung nanometergrosser Bausteine angelegt ist.
Supersampled Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy
Researchers from a Swiss-German collaboration have developed a new method for scanning transmission X-ray microscopy substantially reducing the impact of mechanical vibrations and imaging overheads, allowing for routine high-resolution imaging experiments
When Two Metals Become One
Using synchrotron X-rays and advanced simulations, we reveal how metals mix—and why defects form.
