Cosmic Crystallography with a Pullback [PDF]
We present a modified version of the cosmic crystallography method, especially useful for testing closed models of negative spatial curvature. The images of clusters of galaxies in simulated catalogs are ``pulled back'' to the fundamental domain before the set of distances is calculated.

We summarize exploratory work on multigrain crystallography. The experimental arrangement comprises a monochromatic beam, a fully illuminated sample with up to several hundred grains in transmission geometry on a rotary table and a 2D detector. Novel algorithms are presented for indexing, integration and filtering with emphasis on handling the ...

Fluorescent Bis(guanidine) Copper Complexes as Precursors for Hydroxylation Catalysis
Bis(guanidine) copper complexes are known for their ability to activate dioxygen. Unfortunately, until now, no bis(guanidine) copper-dioxygen adduct has been able to transfer oxygen to substrates.

Characterization of crystal structure and precipitation crystallography of a new MgxAl2-xGd phase in Mg97Al1Gd2 alloy [PDF]
The composition, crystal structure and precipitation crystallography of a newly found precipitate are characterized by a Cs-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). The composition of the plate-like precipitate could be expressed as MgxAl2-xGd (x = 0.38), and its crystal structure is the same as the fcc type Laves phases Mg2Gd and ...

Quasi-Periodic Crystals—The Long Road from Discovery to Acceptance
[Extract] Three surprising discoveries on the nature of matter and its properties were published in the mid-1980s. All these discoveries led to Nobel prizes. The first discovery was in 1985, when fullerenes were discovered by Robert F.

Crystallography has proven a rich source of ideas over several centuries. Among the many ways of looking at space groups, N. David Mermin has pioneered the Fourier-space approach. Recently, we have supplemented this approach with methods borrowed from algebraic topology. We now show what topology, which studies global properties of manifolds, has to do

Amplification of UV radiation and gain mechanisms in ZnO films with loose-packed structure
The modern demands for miniaturization of optoelectronic devices, in particular, for the UV range, are inextricably linked with the improvement of fabrication technologies for the corresponding photonic nano/micro objects and the study of their radiative

Although carbonate-precipitating cyanobacteria are ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems today, the criteria used to identify them in the geological record are subjective and rarely testable.

The synthesis and characterization of three aromatic oligoamides, constructed from the same pyridyl carboxamide core but incorporating distinct end groups of acetyl (Ac) 1, tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) 2 and amine 3 is reported.
