Wild molecular interactions in a new hydrogen mixture
Washington DC (SPX) Oct 21, 2014 - Hydrogen-the most abundant element in the cosmos-responds to extremes of pressure and temperature differently. Under ambient conditions hydrogen is a gaseous two-atom molecule. As confinement pressure increases, the molecules adopt different states of matter-like when water ice melts to liquid and then heats to steam. Thus far, at extreme pressures hydrogen has four known solid phases. Now ... more
