"We study the phase behavior of bowl-shaped particles using computer simulations. These particles were found experimentally to form a meta-stable worm-like fluid phase in which the bowl-shaped particles have a strong tendency to stack on top of each other [M.Marechal et al, Nano Letters 10, 1907 (2010)]. In this work, we show that the transition from the low-density fluid to the worm-like phase has an interesting effect on the equation of state. The simulation results also show that the worm-like fluid phase transforms spontaneously into a columnar phase for bowls that are sufficiently deep.

Nano as it implies small particles or atoms which is the building blocks of all materials is a 20th century shoot up technology is the centre for design & manufacturing of almost all products.

Carbon nanotubes are already a major tool in bioscience research. In addition, these particles are finding themselves as a central component for production of variety of consumer products, from cosmetics to specialized plastics.

Researchers at Purdue University have developed a potential new tool for medical diagnostics, testing food and water for contamination, and crime-scene forensics.

A covert taping of the Bill Gate’s sponsored psychotic "experts" on climate change at the Geoengineering conference in California last Feb. They discuss 'spraying aluminum in the atmosphere instead of sulphur '. Despite having documented lab results showing that they''ve already been spraying aluminum, barium,cadmium, manganese, lead, arsenic, nickel, and many other toxic heavy metals using nanotechnology to achieve sub-micon particles, the two "scientists" playing God in these videos flat out lie without blinking and deny it.

A team of researchers have created a 'quantum state' in an object billions of times larger than ever before. From the article: 'Such states, in which an object is effectively in two places at once, have until now only been accomplished with single particles, atoms and molecules. In this experiment, published in the journal Nature, scientists produced a quantum state in an object billions of times larger than previous tests. The team says the result could have significant implications in quantum computing.

Scientists may one day use this information to put the particles to work in molecular electronics and artificial muscles, said Ju Li,...First shared by mahendrayadavon SERVICE_DIGGLast shared: Thu Mar 18 09:54:52 GMT 20101 Total Shares: , 1Diggs
