Fullerenes are hollow carbon molecules where each atom is connected to exactly three other atoms, arranged in pentagonal and hexagonal rings. Mathematically, they can be combinatorially modeled as ...

N14; N18; density functional theory (DFT); high energy; high-nitrogen Theoretical studies of N14 and N18 make it not only possible to provide a forecast of the properties of candidate compounds, but ...

With ropes guiding the way, we descend into crystal-filled chambers, discovering stunning formations, shimmering crystal clusters, and even rare, perfectly round crystal "puff balls." This is one ...
