After several years of reflection and international collaboration, CERN has just completed a major study: can we build a new giant particle accelerator, even more ambitious than the LHC?

pattern shown here. Since I realize that it is difficult to pin point the actual unit cell from the lattice, let's cut some of the atoms from the end of the lattice in order to facilitate this. This ...

The first stage of the FCC would be the construction and operation of a collider for electrons (the lightweight particles that make up the outer shell of atoms) and positrons (the antimatter ...

Its melting temperature is 937.4 C. Germanium has the diamond cubic crystal structure shown, an fcc lattice with a basis of two germanium atoms, one at (0,0,0) and the other at (1/4, 1/4, 1/4) in ...

Silicon has the diamond cubic crystal structure with a lattice parameter of 0.543 nm. The nearest neighbor distance is 0.235 nm. The diamond cubic crystal structure has an fcc lattice with a basis of ...
