A 19th-century theory of elasticity inspires a new way to analyze a quantum phase transition that has become central to modern quantum materials research. Figure 1: Calculated elastic deformations of ...
Laboratory experiments elucidate the directions and speeds at which acoustic waves propagate in the type of iron that likely makes up Earth’s core. Figure 1: By compressing a specific crystalline ...
