If the Flintstones had electricity, their wires might have
been made of rock. New results in Science Express show that a chunk of hematite
can conduct electrons under certain chemical conditions. In addition, the
current...

The method to the madness of quasicrystals has been a mystery
to scientists. Quasicrystals are solids whose atoms aren't arranged in a
repeating pattern, as they are in ordinary crystals. Yet they form intricate
patterns...

The crystal structure of a molecule from a primitive fungus has served as a
time machine to show researchers more about the evolution of life from the
simple to the complex.
By studying the three-dimensional version of the fungus...
