Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source helps uncover mystery locked in concrete
Video description In 1971, artist Wolf Vostell wrote a short book called Concretifications, and as evidence of his commitment to the material, he purportedly encased 100 copies of that book in numbered slabs of concrete. Years later, the question became… Is there actually a book inside the 20-pound, two-inch-thick, chunk of concrete?

UCI scientists observe effects of heat in materials with atomic resolution
As electronic, thermoelectric, and computer technologies have been miniaturized to nanometer scale, engineers have faced a challenge studying fundamental properties of the materials involved; in many cases, targets are too small to be observed with optical instruments. Using cutting-edge electron microscopes and novel techniques, a team of researchers at the University of California, Irvine, the […]
