In the fields of chemistry and materials, most successful, widely used machine learning schemes introduced over the last decade aim to model molecular energies or interatomic potentials. Accordingly, ...

Physicists are uncovering the hidden rules that make certain atomic nuclei unusually stable, revealing how protons and neutrons arrange themselves in ‘magic’ configurations. New models now connect ...

The intermediate range order of covalent glasses has been extensively studied in terms of the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP), but the direct observation of the atomic density fluctuations that ...
