Two zircon crystals showed isotopic evidence of meteoric or fresh water; one was 4 billion years old, while the other was 3.4 billion years old, he said.
Water evaporation is among the most common transfer processes on Earth. Scientists think it could compete with solar and wind. by David Grossman Sep. 14, 2020 ...
A possible explanation: water molecules may be arranged in groups like small, loose crystals. If there are such “crystals,” a sound wave would distort them, thus expending some of its energy.
Northwestern University researchers have uncovered a previously unknown property of colloidal crystals, highly ordered three-dimensional arrays of nanoparticles. The team engineered colloidal crystals ...
